 There was enough interest for a <a href="https://github.com/lucidrains/dalle2-jax">Jax version</a>. I will also eventually extend this to <a href="https://github.com/lucidrains/dalle2-video">text to video</a>, once the repository is in a good place.
 
+## Status
+
+- A research group has used the code in this repository to train a functional diffusion prior for their CLIP generations. Will share their work once they release their preprint. This, and <a href="https://github.com/crowsonkb">Katherine's</a> own experiments, validate OpenAI's finding that the extra prior increases variety of generations.
+
+- Decoder is now verified working for unconditional generation on my experimental setup for Oxford flowers
