让扩散模型在消费级设备上实时生成音乐，还支持现场互动创作。

Interactive streaming music generation promises the use of generative models for live performance and co-creation that is impossible with offline models. However, SOTA models exist in the discrete-AR regime, requiring industrial levels of compute for both training and inference. In this work, we investigate whether audio diffusion models, with their wide support in the open-source community but non-streaming bidirectional nature, can be repurposed efficiently into interactive models accessible on consumer hardware. By taking a critical look at the modern pipeline for block-wise outpainting diffusion, we identify critical inefficiencies during inference that result in strictly worse computational efficiency than their discrete-AR counterparts. We propose Live Music Diffusion Models (LMDMs), a simple modification of the generative diffusion process that recovers, and then outperforms, the inference complexity of the discrete Live Music Models (LMMs) through block-wise KV Caching. Unlike LMMs, LMDMs further enable stable post-training alignment through our novel ARC-Forcing paradigm, reducing error accumulation without any explicit RL or reward models. We demonstrate the application of LMDMs in a number of creative domains, including text-conditioned generation, sketch-based music synthesis, and jamming. We finally show how LMDMs can be used as a generative instrument in a real artist-AI collaboration, utilizing LMDMs as a "generative delay" to transform musicians' improvisation live for variable timbral effects while running locally on a consumer gaming laptop.
