Over the last year, a new type of artificial intelligence technology called foundation models (FMs) has rapidly emerged. FMs are revolutionizing the field of AI and enabling incredible new generative capabilities.
FMs are large, multipurpose machine learning models that can be adapted for a wide range of tasks. They are typically pretrained on huge datasets in a self-supervised manner to capture intricate patterns within the data. This allows them to develop a deep understanding of the concepts and relationships contained in the datasets.
Unlike traditional AI models that are narrowly focused on specific problems, FMs have much broader applications.
