JXL is based.

I took my existing JPEG file, compressed it using JXL, 15% smaller.

Then I decompressed it again into JPEG. The file was bit-for-bit identical to the original file (same hash). Blew my mind!

Directly using JXL is even better of course.

Google’s involvement should always raise concerns but I guess it’s good Mozilla is trying to improve stuff.

this is from the google research team, they contribute a LOT to many foss projects. Google is not a monolith, each team is made of often very different folk, who have very different goals

As long as their goals suite the company, sure. The endgame of Google is very clear and it doesn’t include a free and open web.

haerrii ,

they are making it seem just free and open enough to avoid regulation

I don’t even think this is the case, google does a lot pretty much everywhere. one example is one of the things they are pushing for is locally run AI (gemini, stable diffusion etc.) to run on your gpu via webgpu instead of needing to use cloud services, which is obviously privacy friendly for a myriad of reasons, in fact, we now have multiple implementations of LLMs that run locally in browser on webgpu, and even a stable diffusion implementation (never got it to work though since my most beefy gpu is an arc a380 with 6gb of ram)

they do other stuff too, but with the recent craze push for AI, I think this is probably the most relevant.

LLMs are expensive to run, so locally running them saves Google money.

Think the headline kind of buries the lead. Firefox is basically holding google by the balls and saying “Make a better decoder if you want this shit to become standard” which imo is great. Force them to do what they should have done already.

This is not right on multiple levels. Google, or at least the chromium team were not interested in implementing jxl at all
