AIRE Club #44: Multimodal AI – Combining Language and Vision for Better Results
Multimodal AI models offer strong potential, but today they often fall short in delivering the real-time accuracy needed for complex tasks like object counting or critical defect detection. This presentation examines why a single model is rarely sufficient, how combining language and vision models improves results, and which technical solutions and limitations shape their integration.
