Not my area, enjoyed the read. It reminded me of how you can decode a scaled-down version of a JPEG image by simply ignoring the higher-order DCT coefficients.

As such it seems the statement is that stable diffusion is like an autoregressive model which predicts the next set of higher-order FT coefficients from the lower-order ones.

Seems like this is something one could do with a "regular" autoregressive model, has this been tried? Seems obvious so I assume so, but curious how it compares.
