I am, yes. Most of our field’s research is publicly available on arxiv by the way.
Indeed, the paper associated with the blog post is also on arXiv. But how does that relate to your complaint?

toxik was responding to the apparent position that it's OK for the material to be presented in a confusing way, because the research has been provided freely rather than locked behind a paywall. It's apropos to point out that this isn't a great excuse.
Okay, but are you a diffusion model/generative AI researcher?
As a researcher in this field, I found the article fairly understandable and accessible. I suspect that was the target audience.
The domain of diffusion models have a lot of terminology and concepts that are not explained here, so maybe that's why it's harder to understand?
I'm not, so as a reader here, I'm just happy that I didn't have to pay to get exposed to new challenging ideas. A lot of other science is sadly paywalled inside of journals.
Give it a few weeks for the fast followers to dumb it down for us.
