Abstract:We present Paris 2.0, the first video generation model pre-trained through decentralized computation. Its training recipe builds upon Paris 1.0 (arXiv:2510.03434), the first ever open-weight Decentralized Diffusion Model (DDM), which showed that image generation can be trained without a monolithic GPU cluster. However, temporally coherent video generation had remained an open problem under decentralized training, and Paris 2.0 closes it.

In low-resolution text-to-video training, against a monolithic model trained on the same data under a matched total compute budget, Paris 2.0 cuts Frechet Video Distance (FVD) from 561.04 to 279.01, a ~2.0x improvement, and lifts CLIP text-video similarity and aesthetic score.
