LLMZip achieves SOTA compression by a large margin.

Very interesting 🤔 On what kind of data the compression is performing? Any progress in informational videos? I am working on building a smart media format too

The original LLMZip paper mainly focused on text compression. A later work (I forget the name) used an LLM trained on byte tokens. This allowed it to compress not just text, but any file format. I think it may have been Google who published that particular paper… Very impressive though.
