If this goes well, future video compression might take a massive leap. Imagine downloading 2 hours movies with just 20kb file size because it just a bunch of prompts under the hood.
This would be the most GPU intensive compression algorithm of all time :)
And the largest ever decoder since it'll need the whole model to work. I'm not particularly knowledgeable on AI but I'll assume this will occupy hundreds of gigabytes, correct me if I'm wrong there. In comparison, libdav1d, an av1 decoder, weighs less than 2 MB.
