Somewhat related is stavros's method to compress 500KB to something like 50 bytes https://www.stavros.io/posts/compressing-images-with-stable-...main drawback is that it's not lossless ;-)but this is great. I hope this actually becomes a format that wraps the weights and transformer module (maybe this can also be NAS-optimized too?). Maybe it would even work for video?It's like calling gzip but instead of compression level you choose kolmogorov complexity level
