  "summary": "Discrete autoregressive modeling, notably through next-token prediction, has become a cornerstone of modern language models. Extending this paradigm to vision allows visual and language models to converge on a unified framework, thereby fostering shared methodology and infrastructure. This work investigates a central question: how far can a finite discrete vocabulary go in representing the…",
