This is amazing and I think will probably end up being a pretty important development.

I was just reading this great breakdown of how diffusion Gemma works: https://newsletter.maartengrootendorst.com/p/a-visual-guide-...

In reference to the difficulties with applying this to autoregressive LLMs - I wonder if these type of hybrids might be a good candidate for this approach.

I agree, this seems like an important discovery. And it hits a sweetspot of being effective and very simple to implement. Have a look at the pseudocode comparison at the bottom of the accompanying github page: https://explorative-modeling.github.io/

Also, a very well-structured and easy to follow blog post by the author. I very much enjoyed reading it!
