Uniform discrete diffusion models (UDMs) typically rely on explicit time conditioning, yet this study finds that such conditioning is often unnecessary in practice. While the population‑optimal UDM predictor generally depends on time—controlling how much the model should trust the observed context—the dependence becomes negligible in finite‑data language settings. Empirical results show that trained language UDMs exhibit limited time sensitivity across most of the diffusion trajectory, and time‑agnostic predictors can match or outperform time‑conditioned models on various datasets and training objectives.

arXiv:2606. 15048v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion models are typically trained with objectives that focus on local denoising targets at individual time steps (or adjacent pairs), which do not enforce consistency between predictions along the denoising trajectory.
