MUM
A multimodal, multilingual model far larger than its predecessor, able to read text, images, video, and audio together and transfer knowledge across dozens of languages.
Analogy Mental model
A guide fluent in seventy-five languages who can look at your photograph of a torn boot and a video of local weather, then build your equipment list.
In practice What you actually do
Mixed-media search and generated summaries both draw on this, so a page of plain prose is competing with a handicap. Pair written content with original annotated images, diagrams, and embedded video, and describe them properly so they can be understood rather than merely displayed.
Where people get burned Pitfalls
This cuts both ways: a market with little depth in its own language can have authoritative material in another language brought across. Thin local content no longer has the field to itself.
