More Than Meets the Eye? Uncovering the Reasoning-Planning Disconnect
Overview
New research challenges the role of reasoning in vision-language driving models, finding planning is driven by priors, not reasoning. A decoupling hypothesis and diagnostic tool are proposed for model evaluation. (arXiv, 2026-10-09).

- arXiv Robotics — research abstractsMore Than Meets the Eye? Uncovering the Reasoning-Planning Disconnect in Training Vision-Language Driving Models
This research explores whether reasoning in vision-language driving models causally influences planning. Using a new dataset, DriveMind, the authors find that planning is primarily driven by priors rather than reasoning, proposing a decoupling hypothesis and introducing a diagnostic tool for model evaluation.
