The Dawn of Computational Evolution

A new research paper "Perception, Reason, Think, and Plan: A Survey on Large Multimodal Reasoning Models" shows us the exciting evolution of Artificial Intelligence systems that can process and reason with various types of information like text, images, audio, and video.

This work not only maps the journey from early, specialized AI modules to today's more unified systems but also envisions a future where AI can natively understand and interact with our complex, multimodal world with human-like adaptability.

Not just multimodal models.. multimodal reasoning models.

You know, like us humans 😃

In fact, similar to humans, in our AI systems we now see signs of self-directed computational evolution. Not just self-rewarding, but the model reprogramming the model itself (even connected tools) dynamically. This is domain of the Native Large Multimodal Reasoning Models (N-LMRMs) discussed below.

We are moving deeper and deeper into the singularity.
