The article introduces Continuous Diffusion Language Models (CDLMs), a novel approach that adapts diffusion-based generative modeling techniques—traditionally used in image generation—to the domain of language. CDLMs model text generation as a continuous-time diffusion process over token embeddings, enabling more nuanced control over output diversity and quality. The post outlines the theoretical framework, training methodology, and early experimental results demonstrating competitive performance compared to autoregressive baselines.
