About
Seed Diffusion Preview is a large-scale, code-focused language model that uses discrete-state diffusion to generate code non-sequentially, achieving dramatically faster inference without sacrificing quality by decoupling generation from the token-by-token bottleneck of autoregressive models. It combines a two-stage curriculum, mask-based corruption followed by edit-based augmentation, to robustly train a standard dense Transformer, striking a balance between speed and accuracy and avoiding shortcuts like carry-over unmasking to preserve principled density estimation. The model delivers an inference speed of 2,146 tokens/sec on H20 GPUs, outperforming contemporary diffusion baselines while matching or exceeding their accuracy on standard code benchmarks, including editing tasks, thereby establishing a new speed-quality Pareto frontier and demonstrating discrete diffusion’s practical viability for real-world code generation.

About
Mercury 2 is the first reasoning model fast enough to pick up the phone, a reasoning diffusion language model built for real-time voice agents. Instead of making callers wait through seconds of dead air while an autoregressive model generates thinking tokens one by one, Mercury 2 uses a diffusion large language model architecture to generate tokens in parallel, decoding 1000+ tokens per second on standard NVIDIA GPUs. That speed is fast enough to run a full reasoning pass and start speaking within the latency budget of a natural conversation, reducing the cost of reasoning from seconds of silence to roughly 300 milliseconds. Mercury models work by corrupting clean text into noise, then training a standard Transformer to reverse the process and predict clean text across all positions simultaneously. Because each denoising pass touches many tokens, generation uses the GPU more efficiently than one-token-at-a-time decoding, making custom-silicon-like speed possible on NVIDIA H100s.
