Multimodal

Multimodal AI systems process and integrate multiple types of data inputs such as text, images, audio, and video to generate outputs or predictions. For enterprise governance, multimodal models introduce heightened complexity in risk assessment because each data modality carries distinct bias, privacy, and security considerations that must be evaluated separately. Organizations deploying multimodal systems face challenges in model transparency, data lineage tracking, and ensuring compliance across diverse data types and their respective regulatory frameworks.
