arXiv:2605.00161v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion language models (DLMs) are an attractive alternative to autoregressive models because they promise sublinear-time, parallel generation, yet practical gains remain elusive as high-quality samples still demand hundreds of refinement steps. In continuous domains, consistency training along the probability-flow ODE is a popular recipe to accelerate diffusion. For discrete diffusion, no analogous sample-space ODE exists, making direct adaptation ill-defined. We argue that the right discrete substitute is the exact posterior bridge, the c
