## Summary

BAAI, with BUPT and PKU, releases the code and weights for LLaCO, a continuous diffusion model that it says scales to serious reasoning. The post says continuous diffusion gives bidirectional contextual planning and smooth semantic trajectories without autoregressive bottlenecks. Paper, code, weights and project page are published on arXiv, GitHub, Hugging Face and a project site.

## Post

Continuous diffusion provides bidirectional contextual planning and smooth semantic trajectories without autoregressive bottlenecks. LLaCO proves it scales to serious reasoning.
