+## Todo

+- [ ] finish off gaussian diffusion class for latent embedding - allow for both prediction of epsilon as well as directly predicting embedding
+- [ ] make sure it works end to end
+- [ ] augment unet so that it can also be conditioned on text encodings (although in paper they hinted this didn't make much a difference)
+- [ ] look into Jonathan Ho's cascading DDPM for the decoder, as that seems to be what they are using. get caught up on DDPM literature
+- [ ] figure out all the current bag of tricks needed to make DDPMs great (starting with the blur trick mentioned in paper)
+- [ ] train on a toy task, offer in colab
