TL;DR
A generative model architecture that replaces traditional convolutional backbones with transformer networks to scale image, video, and multimodal synthesis.
Diffusion Transformers swap out the standard U-Net architectures typically used in latent diffusion processes for vision transformers. By dividing compressed latents into sequence tokens and applying self-attention, these models capture global, long-range dependencies far more effectively than traditional convolutions. This structural shift allows generative AI systems to scale computational training linearly with significantly improved output fidelity.
