LLaVA 1.5: An open source alternative to GPT-4 Vision The field of generative artificial intelligence is experiencing a real revolution with the emergence of large multimodal models (LMM), such as OpenAI’s GPT-4 Vision. These models revolutionize our interaction with AI systems by integrating both text and images. However, the closed and commercial nature of some of these technologies may limit their universal adoption. It is in this context that the open source community comes into play, propelling the LLaVA 1.5 model as a promising alternative to GPT-4 Vision. The mechanics of LMM LMMs operate using a multi-layer architecture. They combine…
