# Different Tasks, Different Timesteps: Temporal Task-Aware Quantization for Diffusion Language Models > Source: > Published: 2026-10-23 22:20:27+00:00 Diffusion Language Models (DLMs) introduce unique quantization challenges due to their iterative denoising process. In this work, we reveal that quantization sensitivity is both taskand time-dependent, with different downstream tasks exhibiting distinct precision requirements across denoising steps.
