  1. Multi-modal AI integrates multiple types of data in the same training process, allowing models to represent data in a common n-dimensional space.
  2. Multi-modality adds an extra dimension to data, expanding the search space exponentially, enabling more diverse and powerful AI applications.
  3. While multi-modality enhances model performance, it does not solve fundamental issues with AI models like GPT, and simpler technologies may be more effective for certain use-cases.

  1. Vector similarity search is essential for recommendation systems, image search, and natural language processing.
  2. Vector search involves finding similar vectors to a query vector using distance metrics like L1, L2, and cosine similarity.
  3. Common vector search strategies include linear search, space partitioning, quantization, and hierarchical navigable small worlds.

  1. The concept of 'embedding' in machine learning has evolved and become widely used, replacing terms like vectors and representations.
  2. Embeddings can be applied to various types of data, come from different layers in a neural network, and are not always about reducing dimensions.
  3. Defining 'embedding' has become challenging due to its widespread use, but the essence is about learned transformations that make data more useful.
