Imagine a highly efficient compressor watching Toy Story in 4k definition. If it was really intelligent, then it could abstract the 3D-models, motion, physics, lightning, and textures, and store the movie (or something imperceivably like it) in a highly compressed representation. Or even write down just the script and direct a movie so similar that it can't be distinguished from the original.
