You'll be waiting for a long time then, probably. Making codecs is actually a hard problem, the type of thing that AI completely falls over when tasked with.

Compression is actually a very good use case for neural networks (i.e. don't have an LLM develop a codec, but rather train a neural network to do the compression itself).

It works amazingly well with text compression, for example: https://bellard.org/nncp/

Considering AI is good at predicting things and that’s largely what compression does, I could see machine learning techniques being useful as a part of a codec though (which is a completely different thing from asking ChatGPT to write you a codec)
