Two Minute Papers explains DeepSeek-OCR: teaching AI to compress context by forgetting
Two Minute Papers · youtube · 2026-10-12
Two Minute Papers released a video walkthrough of DeepSeek-OCR, which encodes long context as compressed images — an "optical" 2D mapping that stores text densely and reads it back on demand. The video covers the paper's motivation, architecture highlights, and implications for long-context costs; the paper and code are open-sourced on GitHub.
