NVIDIA Releases Nemotron-Labs-TwoTower: an Open-Weight Diffusion Language Model Built on a Frozen Autoregressive Nemotron-3-Nano-30B-A3B Backbone
NVIDIA has released Nemotron-Labs-TwoTower, a diffusion language model built on a pretrained autoregressive backbone. It ships as open weights under the NVIDIA Nemotron Open Model License. The release targets a throughput bottleneck in text generation. Autoregressive (AR) models decode one token at a time. That serial process caps generation throughput. Discrete diffusion language models take
