That is very broadly how it works but try finding that math expression.

cool idea now make it happen
>>107025330>Why couldn't this work?>A big number can be expressed using a small mathematical expressionyou have no idea how time consuming of a task that is
>>107025330math expressions are also represented by arrays of bytes and therefore have their own entropy. keeping 2^10 is the same number of bytes as the number 1024. if something *looks* simpler it doesn't mean it is easier to encode. read about kolmogorov complexity
>>107025330>that take up almost no space>Why couldn't this work?Because you have to decompress afterwards, and that means you had to have kept track of the parts you removed or shifted around to save space. You could throw away some of that information at the expense of the quality of your decompressed output but that sucks, so the solution is buying more storage. You also have to factor in computational overhead.
>>107025330The code to do it would take up a similiar amount of space instead.
>>107025330We already do this with lossy compression beyond what most people can even begin to comprehend. Modern image formats like AVIF are capable of describing rough approximations of complex images as low as 1KB, which is like a twitter post worth of information to humans.Outside of those rough approximations you'll run into problems because things are often packed with noisy random data that can't easily be represented in any alien symbol math thing.

>>107025330This is actually the principle of generativeAI , you have a mathematical equation (Which that what a fucking AI model is)And the model tries to represent the more accurate possible the original universe of data. And this is the principle of why current LLM reasoning is an scam Pic-related is an auto-encoder which is practically a neural compressor (which is what you are looking for).

>>107025330It's called arithmetic encoding and it was patented by IBM, chud. The patent expired like in the 2000s but it was popular anyway, mp3 uses it and jpeg too, it's much better than Huffman encoding, modern methods like ANS can be better.

>>107031238Already posted. >>107031284Try it and see. I think the problem becomes clear when you see it not so much as quantities of things (10 apples versus 20 apples) but a quantity of digits or orders of magnitude ( 10 apples or 20 apples is the same size, two digits, even though 10 is "smaller" than 20).

>>107028384Any file can be said to 'contain' any other file, as any file can be combined with an arbitrary algorithm and key combination to produce whichever other file you want. For instance, attached image can be used as key with the RelativeEmbed algorithm to 'extract' a very different image from >>107025330. Neither image contains the data on its own, but with the right algorithm either can 'contain' a different image when using the other as key.
>>107028384>https://github.com/philipl/pifs>So I've looked up my bytes in π, but how do I remember where they are?>Well, you've obviously got to write them down somewhere; you could use a piece of paper, but remember all that storage space we saved by moving our data into π? Why don't we store our file locations there!When you're 10 years old and your mom nags you to clean your room so you jam all the bullshit in the closet
>>107025456The real tricks to reducing size are realizing which of the possible options can be skipped and making use of context.For the former, the most obvious example is prime numbers. If you already know you're working only with prime numbers, the number '17' (which ordinarily would require 5 bits to represent) can be immediately derived from the number '7' (3 bits) as it's the seventh prime number. More practically, the vast majority of text uses fewer than 256 symbols, so by reserving one option for 'uncommon symbols' (which you then write out uncompressed) you can spend fewer bits on encoding the handful of symbols that are actually used in text.For the latter, MIDI audio files are an example. Rather than storing the audio itself, they contain instructions for which instruments play which notes at which times. The parser then makes use of its soundbank to reproduce the music as instructed by the MIDI audio file. This results in multi-megabyte music sometimes being stored in as little as a few kilobytes.The most extreme example of the latter is things like HTTP URLs or magnet links: rather than storing ANY of the actual data, you just store instructions on how to fetch the actual data from other servers on the global network you're connected to. This of course blurs the line between 'containing the data' and being unrelated data that just happens to be usable to generate other data. If a MIDI file contains music, how does a magnet link not contain the file it describes or a HTTP link not contain the page it links to?
>>107025330realistically it's easier to come up with say 500 formulas that have correct subsequences then combine them to create the entire sequence and we call that uhhhh neural compression or something idk
