MaartenGr · x · 2026-10-30
Maarten Grootendorst published a deep visual explainer (50+ figures) on how LLMs generate images, audio and video, originally a chapter cut from his book with Jay Alammar, now free. It covers Diffusion Transformers, SoundStream, Latte, VQ-GAN, how Transformers spread beyond text, and how multimodal decoding connects to LLMs via early or late fusion.
