A few years ago, a new kind of AI called a diffusion model appeared. Today, it powers tools like Stable Diffusion and Runway Gen-2, turning text prompts into high-quality images and even short videos.

All over the AI field, teams are unlocking new functionality by changing the ways that the models work. Some of this has to do with input compression and changing the memory requirements for LLMs, or ...

With powerful video generation tools now in the hands of more people than ever, let's take a look at how they work. MIT Technology Review Explains: Let our writers untangle the complex, messy world of ...

The development of large language models (LLMs) is entering a pivotal phase with the emergence of diffusion-based architectures. These models, spearheaded by Inception Labs through its new Mercury ...

In a new study, Apple researchers present a diffusion model that can write up to 128 times faster than its counterparts. Here’s how it works. Here’s what you need to know for this study: LLMs such as ...

As LLMs and diffusion models power more applications, their safety alignment becomes critical. Our research shows that even minimal downstream fine‑tuning can weaken safeguards, raising a key question ...

What if the future of text generation wasn’t just faster, but smarter and more adaptable? Enter Gemini Diffusion, a new approach that challenges the long-standing dominance of autoregressive models.
