arXiv:2608.00035v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Goal-directed visual processing is a hallmark of human visual intelligence, resulting in representations that support downstream tasks such as categorization or search. Though vision-language models (VLMs) are often faced with these same tasks, their ability to recode visual representations when presented with goal-directed language remains poorly characterized. Indeed, prior work largely treats visual representations in VLMs as static repositorie
