Visual Omniversal Learning from Universal Teachers
Volute is an ambitious project in the space of Computer Vision and Machine Learning. While these research domains have made tremendous progress in recent years and have contributed to the success of many tech companies, we are still seeing the highest impact of artificial intelligence (AI) in the natural language processing (NLP) space - for example, in products such as ChatGPT or AI-assisted search on Google and Bing. This success stems from a "foundation model" (e.g., GPT) that is then fine-tuned with hand-labelled instructions to become an assistive chatbot.
