KV Cache Confusion Meme

Text on the meme

WE NEED TO SAVE SOME TOKENS OVER HERE I AM A TOKEN INFLUENCER OUR INPUT TOKENS ARE TOO EXPENSIVE TURN THEM INTO AN IMAGE WOULDN’T THAT STOP WORKING WHEN KV CACHE IS INVALIDATED WHAT IS KV CACHE

What it means

A woman helps a fallen man while a suited businessman stands nearby, presented as a three-panel dialogue. The joke compares reducing expensive input tokens to converting them into an image, followed by confusion about whether that would break when the KV cache is invalidated. It is used as a humorous reaction to misunderstandings about AI optimization and caching.
