It uses Molmo 2 as its backbone and comes in two variants: an autoregressive version (MolmoMotion-AR) for well-defined trajectories and a flow-matching version (MolmoMotion-FM) for uncertain multi-modal futures. Alongside the model, AI2 releases MolmoMotion-1M, a dataset of 1.16M videos with object-grounded 3D point trajectories paired with action descriptions, and PointMotionBench, a 2.7K-clip human-validated benchmark. MolmoMotion outperforms existing 3D forecasting methods on the benchmark, improves robot pick-and-place success from 56% to 76.3%, and enhances motion quality in video generation tasks. Model weights, dataset, and benchmark are all openly released. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
