Multimodal LLMs are the real future of AI (especially for robotics)
I strongly believe multimodal LLMs (AI that can understand text, images, audio, and actions) are the next big step in AI.
Right now, most LLMs are mainly used for chatting. But I think the real breakthrough will happen in robotics, where AI needs to see, hear, and act in the real world.
Think about it:
Every robot already has (or will have) sensors:
* **Cameras** (drones, vehicles, humanoid robots)
* **Microphones**
* **Depth sensors / LiDAR**
* **GPS / IMU**
* Maybe even tactile sensors
A robot doesn’t just need to *talk,* it needs to:
* **see the world**
* **understand scenes**
* **reason about physical space**
* **plan actions**
* and **execute in real-time**
And multimodal models are basically built for this.
I feel like as robotics advances accelerate, the demand for multimodal intelligence is going to **explode**, because robots are not operating inside a browser, they’re operating in the real world.
I’m building in this space. What’s your opinion on the future of multimodal LLMs?
there’s a gap between the message and the outcome Not convinced this is settled yet.
Not gonna lie, this feels like a half-step, not a full move That’s what makes this interesting. This probably isn’t the last word on it.
Reaction: me_irl
If we’re being honest, this comes across more reactive than planned
Reaction: Why am I scared? Probably because one time my grandma got pulled over when I was a kid and she told the cop that her bad driving was because of me and he came to my window. I didnt do anythi

the timing matters more than people admit and that friction is hard to ignore
From a neutral view, the wording alone shifts how people read this and that tension shows up immediately Feels like an opening move, not an ending.
Stepping back, the timing matters more than people admit which makes the reaction pretty predictable
Looking at this, this depends heavily on what happens next and that’s what people are responding to That’s the key detail here. That’s just how it reads to me.
Reaction: COMING SOOON......
there’s a lot said here but not much clarified Curious how this plays out. Others will probably see it differently.
At this point, the follow-through is what will decide this and that friction is hard to ignore That part stands out. Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
Putting bias aside, the main issue seems to be how this is handled so the response doesn’t surprise me Could be wrong, but that’s how it comes across.
the main issue seems to be how this is handled which is why this is getting picked apart This probably isn’t the last word on it.
Trying to be fair, the intention might be solid, the rollout less so and that’s where it gets complicated Feels like an opening move, not an ending.
Bluntly speaking, this depends heavily on what happens next That’s the key detail here.

Reaction: First day as a god
this feels more about execution than intent so the response doesn’t surprise me That’s the key detail here. That’s the impression it gives me.
this feels rushed rather than thought through That’s the key detail here. Hard to say where this lands long term. That’s the impression it gives me.
the follow-through is what will decide this and that’s where the disagreement starts That part stands out.
To be fair, there’s a gap between the message and the outcome which turns this into more of a debate Others will probably see it differently.
Reaction: Step one: admit its a bad habit. Step two: keep doing it anyway
Not gonna lie, the follow-through is what will decide this Feels like there’s more coming here. At least from my perspective.

the intention might be solid, the rollout less so This could age very differently in a week.

Bluntly speaking, this feels like a half-step, not a full move which is why the comments look the way they do
Just reading this, the framing does a lot of heavy lifting here which makes the reaction pretty predictable Time will tell.

Honestly, the way this is presented changes how it lands which makes the reaction pretty predictable

the logic is there, but the execution is uneven and that tension shows up immediately That’s just my read on it.
