They're indeed not diffusion models, though they are trained on animation data as well as specifically designed for it (the raster papers at least.) I'm very hopeful wrt diffusion, though I'm looking at it and it's far from straightforward. One problem with diffusion and video is that diffusion training is data hungry and video data is big. A lot of approaches you see have some way to tackle this at their core. But also, AI today is like 80s PCs in some sense: both clearly the way of the future and clumsy/goofy, especially when juxtaposed with the triumphalism you tend to hear all around
