Inception, a startup led by Stanford professor Stefano Ermon, has introduced a novel AI model referred to as a diffusion-based large language model (DLM). This model merges the capabilities of generative AI, typically seen in LLMs, with the efficiency of diffusion models, allowing for high-speed text generation and lower computational costs. Ermon highlights that diffusion models can process data in parallel, marking a significant improvement over LLMs, which operate sequentially. This innovation stems from years of research aimed at enhancing text generation methods.
Ermon emphasized, "With LLMs, you cannot generate the second word until you've generated the first one, and you cannot generate the third one until you generate the first two."
Describing the innovation, Ermon revealed, "Our diffusion-based model allows for generating and modifying large blocks of text in parallel, which is a significant advancement over traditional LLMs."
