> Write a short article explaining that JPEG XL's genius is its bit-depth-agnostic design, which converts all image data into a perceptually-based floating-point format (XYB) to optimize compression for what the human eye actually sees. In contrast, AVIF is locked into its video-codec legacy, forcing it to use rigid, integer-based bit-depth modes that optimize for numerical precision rather than true perceptual quality.
