What changed
Developed stable early-fusion training and mixed-modal alignment for a transformer generating interleaved discrete image/text tokens, with architectural normalization changes and a long-form mixed-modal evaluation.
Scientific scope
Developed stable early-fusion training and mixed-modal alignment for a transformer generating interleaved discrete image/text tokens, with architectural normalization changes and a long-form mixed-modal evaluation. Inherits autoregression, visual tokenization and transformer normalization. Acquired delta is the concrete stable-training/evaluation system, not first multimodal tokens or invention of QK normalization. Human preference comparisons use tested prompts/baselines and do not establish universal dominance.
Evidence
The linked original sources describe the stated contribution and its evidence limits. WRS has not independently rerun the experiments or certified a proof.
