In fact, several groups have proposed different multi-modal transformer architectures already (e.g. [1] or [2]), although I don&amp;#x27;t believe anyone has scaled them up much farther than 300M parameters yet. If these models are shown videos of butterflies flapping their wings with a text description of &amp;#x27;a butterfly flapping its wings,&amp;#x27; why wouldn&amp;#x27;t you expect it to start to relate the information coming from multiple modalities? It&amp;#x27;s definitely a challenge to get enough high-quality data to feed a 100B parameter…&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="https://hackerpaper.kaipfister.de/p/2104.11178/"&gt;Paper and discussion history&lt;/a&gt;.
