Arguably, "learning" and "compression" are the same thing.

In this sense, you can view SD as a compression algorithm where the decoder is the model, the compressed file is the prompt + tweakable params, and there aren't any error checks made, so you can feed random data into the decoder and get something out.

Or maybe the compressed file is the model, and prompt + tweakable params is a "path" inside that compressed file?
