The transcript segments this claim was taken from
“this trajectory from like a f initial distribution to a final distribution, we don't need to do kind of this uh this Markov chain process at all. We can phrase it as just like a pure optimisation problem without any stochasticity by instead kind of updating the density at every point.”Play from 24:29Report a misattribution
