Discrete Diffusion LLMs Enable Training-Free Constraints and 5.5x Inference Speedup

UVA RAISE Lab shows discrete diffusion LLMs can enforce hard constraints during generation without retraining, spanning language, chemistry, and code. Its SpecDiff method uses diffusion drafting to accelerate autoregressive LLM inference by 5.5x with more gains ahead.
