| Challenge: | Recent work shows that hyperscaling of data and parameter count in LLMs is yielding diminishing improvement when weighed against training costs. |
| Approach: | They propose to insert multimodal tokens directly into the middle of the model to bypass the early layers. |
| Outcome: | The proposed method reduces training and inference costs while preserving performance. |
