Three months ago, a group of practitioners published a quiet result that, in hindsight, marks a real inflection point on multimodal models just crossed a threshold — designers should pay attention.
The shift began quietly. A handful of teams, working in parallel and mostly unaware of each other, arrived at similar conclusions: the old approach optimized for a constraint that no longer binds. Hardware got cheaper. Models got smaller.…
Skeptics will point out — correctly — that we've seen similar inflection-point claims fizzle. The honest answer is that you don't need certainty to act, just better expected value. The downside of moving too early in this category is…
