Ah, you’re talking about guidance? That makes sense, but you could also take the perspective that guidance isn’t really playing the role of a utility function, it’s just nudging around this big dynamical system by small amounts.
no, I’m talking about the basic diffusion model underneath. It models the derivative of the probability density function, which seems reasonable to call a utility function to me. see my other comment for link
but diffusion specifically works by modeling the derivative of the utility function, yeah?
