What is Multimodal AI?

Multimodal AI
A. What is Multimodal AI
AI that handles not only text but multiple types of information such as images, audio and video. It can describe an image it sees or hold a spoken conversation.

Multimodal AI can understand and generate multiple modalities (types of information) at once — text, images, audio and video. You can upload an image and ask about its contents, or converse by voice.

Many leading AI chatbots are advancing their multimodal capabilities, and whether they support image input, image generation and voice chat has become an important point of feature comparison.
