Apple open sourced DiffuCoder, a diffusion large language model (dLLM) fine-tuned for coding tasks. DiffuCoder is based on Qwen-2.5-Coder and outperforms other code-specific LLMs on several coding ...

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 ...

AI startup Stability AI continues to refine its generative AI models in the face of increasing competition — and ethical challenges. Today, Stability AI announced the launch of Stable Diffusion XL 1.0 ...

Membership Inference Authors, Creators & Presenters: Yan Pang (University of Virginia), Tianhao Wang (University of Virginia) PAPER Black-box Membership Inference Attacks against Fine-tuned Diffusion ...

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 ...
