fine-tuning a 14B model with TRL + SFT on a free Colab (T4 GPU)?
thanks to the latest TRL optimizations, you actually can!
sharing a new notebook showing how to do it 😎

The past year I have been trying to get diffusion models to work for language generation, without having to retrain a LLM from scratch. And recently, we finally succeeded:
We introduce "LAD: LoRA-Adapted Denoiser", a method to convert a LLaMA model into a text diffusion model using LoRA finetuning and structured input corruption.
🎯 Try the demo and read the write-up here!
https://ruurdkuiper.github.io/tini-lad/
Unlike autoregressive (word-for-word) models like ChatGPT, diffusion models iteratively refine a noised sequence. However, most current diffusion approaches rely on all-parameter retraining and repeatedly remasking tokens, which is costly and slow during both training and inference!
🧠 With LAD:
- We can finetune an autoregressive model for diffusive generation in just 10 hours on a single GPU.
- Test-time compute is fully adjustable: fewer steps means faster outputs while more steps improve output quality.
- Due to our unique noising schedule, remasking is not always needed during inference. All tokens are attended to in each iteration!
🔍 LAD is built using:
– A frozen LLaMA-8B backbone
– Structured noising: token swaps, duplications, replacements, span shifts
– Modified attention masks for bidirectional decoding
💡 We show that even small, fast-trained models can perform diffusive generation — with competitive benchmark performance, perplexity and more flexible test-time behavior than traditional transformers.

Thanks! I’m trying to get it under attention as I think the leap from pretraining (10000+ hours) diffusion models to mere finetuning (10 hours) for adaptation is a big one, and could really help this method gain some traction.
