["Zhou Hongyi, founder of 360 Group, predicts the development trends of large models in 2024 during a speech at Tsinghua University.", "Large models will be ubiquitous and become key supporting technologies across various fields, not monopolized.", "Domestic large models will standardly feature multimodal capabilities, involving text, images, videos, and audio.", "The development direction of large models is towards both larger and smaller scales, with application areas expanding to smart vehicles and more.", "Privacy risk issues are gaining attention, advocating for local deployment of small-scale large models to safeguard user data privacy."]

The CogVLM-17B, developed through a collaboration between Tsinghua University and Zhipu AI, is a domestic multimodal model with outstanding performance. CogVLM-17B can not only recognize objects in images but also distinguish between fully visible and partially visible objects. The model employs a unique deep fusion method, achieving deep alignment of image features and text features through four key components. CogVLM-17B outperforms Google's models in various fields and is aptly referred to as the '14-sided warrior', showcasing its multimodal capabilities.
