LLMs are surprisingly great at compressing images and audio, DeepMind researchers findfloofloof@lemmy.ca to Technology@lemmy.ml – 129 points – 1 years agoventurebeat.com19Post a CommentPreviewYou are viewing a single commentView all commentsShow the parent commentWe're likely talking about lossy compression hereThat was my first thought as well, but it doesn't seem to be the case: In their study, the Google DeepMind researchers repurposed open-source LLMs to perform arithmetic coding, a type of lossless compression algorithm. ... and this is why I should actually read the articles before commenting lol
