Multimodal AI

AI that can understand and generate multiple types of content — text, images, audio, video.

📖 Apprentice Explanation

Multimodal AI can work with different types of content at once. GPT-4 can understand images and text together. Some models can generate images, audio, and video from text descriptions.

🧙 Archmage Notes

Multimodal models use cross-attention or unified token spaces to process different modalities. Architectures include vision-language models (LLaVA, GPT-4V), text-to-image (DALL-E, SD), and text-to-video (Sora, Runway). Alignment between modalities remains a key research challenge.
