absolutely goated paper for anyone working with distilled diffusion models lately: arxiv.org/abs/2605.05204

D-OPSD: On-Policy Self-Distillation for Continuously Tuning Step-Distilled Diffusion Models arxiv.org
AI Weekly's analysis
  • The paper argues ordinary supervised fine-tuning of step-distilled diffusion models compromises their inherent few-step inference capability.
  • D-OPSD treats the model as both teacher, seeing text plus target-image information, and student, seeing only text features.
  • The authors claim their approach lets models learn new concepts and styles without sacrificing original few-step capacity.

Recent commentary

not thinking LLMs are interesting is just a mix of tech illiteracy & millenial tech lash. It's honestly that simple

people who'd list "anti-AI" as part of their personality will typically put as much thought & due dilligence into who they boost & listen to as your boomer grandpa who has fox news playing 24/7

So many baby-brained takes on generative art by people who apparently exist in a world without poetry or conceptual art.

it's already profitable. like i'm sorry but you are just so lazy if you're talking like this and anyways, people who hate "ai" won't die mad anyways, they'll quietly forget or re-define what constitutes "ai" as it becomes like the world wide web: ubiquitous, harms and benefits all over

People proclaiming on whether "AI" can be used to create novel information could instead take a deep breathe & simply ask any chess player or any academic studying protein folding

millenials nodding along to a pr expert spreading misinfo re LLM determinism on podcasts is really just the circle of life. a lot of people in every generation will listen to their generations' huksters on talk radio eventually

my take on agentic systems is that they're the hand-engineered way to do inference-time scaling and that the a lot of the core work there should and will be bitter-lessoned away eventually.

mmm people have an elaborate way to prompt chatgpt to generate horror images but if you just politely ask it, it'll give you horror images. I guess the bizarre aspect is that vaguely asking it to make up a "maybe disturbing" image generated literal realistic gore for me immediately
