ArXi:2605.28167v1 Announce Type: new Text-to-image diffusion models, which are theoretically equivalent to score-based generative models, generate images through a multi-step denoising process guided by text embeddings extracted from pretrained vision-language models such as CLIP. However, these text embeddings inherently encode social and semantic biases -- such as those related to gender and age -- that are subsequently propagated and amplified through the guidance mechanism, along with the model's
