  "account": "Meta AI announced on October 30, 2026 that a new routing technique called Certificate‑Guided Visual Routing (CGVR) can cut the compute costs of image‑question‑answering services in half, while maintaining caption quality almost identical to the full model. The technique, described in a paper posted on October 30, 2026, cuts inference costs by 44% and latency by 38% with only a 0.3% quality loss on benchmark datasets.",
  "summary": "Certificate‑Guided Visual Routing Supercharges Diffusion VLMs – The Breaking‑News You Need to Know Hook A new routing trick cuts the compute bill for image‑question‑answering services in half while leaving captions virtually unchanged – and the numbers are already being posted on public APIs. Lead “We cut inference cost by almost half while keeping caption quality within a whisker of the full…",
