Apple has at last unveiled MM1, their multimodal AI model designed for generating text and images. This AI model is also capable of making in-context predictions due to its extensive multimodal pre-training.
For several months, there has been conjecture and hearsay about Apple's forthcoming AI initiatives and multimodal AI designs. Apple's scientists have now created a group of extensive multimodal language models named MM1, capable of managing and producing both written and visual content, as revealed in a research document shared last week.
The research conducted in Apple's laboratories focused on developing efficient large language models that incorporate multiple modes (MLLMs). This was achieved through meticulous examination and modification of different architectural elements, data sources, and training processes.
The study revealed that the quality of the image resolution and the efficiency of the visual encoder significantly influenced the model's effectiveness. Conversely, the particular technique of merging visual and text information was of lesser importance.
They also found out that a meticulous blend of various data types was essential. The blend included interleaved image-text documents that assisted in few-shot learning, traditional captioned images that improved zero-shot performance, and text-only data that sustained robust language comprehension abilities.
MM1 has the ability to make predictions within context due to its high-capacity multimodal pre-training. This enables MM1 to tally items and adhere to personalized formatting, point out sections of visual content and execute optical character recognition, exhibit practical understanding and vocabulary knowledge regarding day-to-day items, as well as carry out fundamental mathematical operations.
Drawing from these understandings, the group created the MM1 model series, which consists of three billion to 30 billion parameters, encompassing both dense and mixture-of-experts versions. After intensifying the training process, MM1 obtained top-tier outcomes on several multimodal benchmarks during the pre-training phase.
After additional tuning using a carefully selected dataset of 1 million examples, the final MM1 models showed strong results across 12 different tasks that involved multiple modes of processing, including answering questions based on visuals and providing captions. Impressively, the MM1 was able to process multiple images at once and learn from only a few examples, which are crucial abilities made possible by the team's thoughtful approach to pre-training in multiple modes.
This study expands on earlier investigations into fields such as CLIP for acquiring visual representations through natural language supervision, and autoregressive models such as GPT for producing text. Nonetheless, it is among the first comprehensive researches particularly dedicated to extensive multimodal pre-training.
The investigators anticipate that their findings will hasten advancements, with rumors suggesting that Apple is in discussion to incorporate Google's Gemini AI generation models into future iPhone applications.
