🎓 multimodal models are AI that don't just read text, they see, hear, and understand it together.
One model, several senses: text, images, audio, sometimes video, processed as one input.
For traders: it can read a chart screenshot and the tweet next to it, same context, same output.
For builders: fewer pipelines, no need to glue separate vision and language tools together.
Example: you paste a candlestick chart plus a headline, the model reasons on both at once.
Takeaway: multimodal means the AI reads the whole picture, not just the caption.
