arXiv:2611.13120v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Recent work on latent-free diffusion transformers has demonstrated the feasibility of training image generators without a latent VAE. This avoids compression artifacts from the VAE and simplifies the training pipeline. In particular, JiT showed that even a standard transformer can be trained to generate images when the model is trained to predict the final image ($x$-prediction). Even though JiT unlocks training efficiency comparable to latent models, it still suffers from reduced image quality likely arising from modeling the image as a collec
