What’s AI by Louis-François Bouchard on Instagram: "Meet DeepSeek-OCR, the new kid rewriting how we handle long-context vision. Instead of forcing LLMs to digest endless text, it compresses text into vision tokens—turning documents into a compact optical language. The result? 97% accuracy at a 10× compression ratio and 60% even at 20×. That’s wild. This model runs a Mixture-of-Experts decoder that beats 7B+ vision models with just 570M active params, thanks to smart token efficiency—not brute fo
