The emergence of multimodal AI has significantly transformed the landscape of data wrangling. In the past, we relied heavily on text extraction libraries like PyTesseract for tasks such as optical character recognition (OCR). However, the advancement of Vision Transformers and other multimodal models has revolutionized how we process and interpret data. These advanced models are capable of seamlessly integrating information from multiple modalities, such as images and text, providing a more holistic and efficient approach to data extraction and interpretation. This shift has paved the way for more accurate and sophisticated AI-driven solutions across various industries.

We will start with the actual and important question.

What is meant by MULTI-MODAL?

To help you understand this, I will give you a snippet from Wikipedia.

Multimodal pedagogy is an approach to the teaching of writing that implements different modes of communication.Multimodality refers to the use of visual, aural, linguistic, spatial, and gestural modes in differing pieces of media, each necessary to properly convey the information it presents.
