He Kai Ming's team has published several papers challenging the dominance of diffusion models in image generation, proposing flow matching as a more efficient alternative. Their work introduces methods like JiT, which directly predicts clean images instead of noise, achieving competitive FID scores without distillation. Additionally, their VARC model demonstrates that visual reasoning tasks, like the ARC benchmark, can be solved effectively by pure vision models without relying on language understanding, matching human performance with significantly fewer parameters.
