Synthetic data is artificially generated information that mimics real-world data. Unlike data collected from actual events or processes, it is created using algorithms and simulation techniques. This type of data can replicate various characteristics of genuine data, making it a valuable asset in situations where real data is scarce, sensitive, or difficult to obtain.

Grounding helps to ensure that language models interact with users in a way that is informed, relevant, consistent, and trustworthy. The process of grounding large language models (LLMs) involves anchoring their responses in real-world knowledge and ensuring they maintain relevance to the context. Language models should be grounded in order to understand and relate to empirical data, avoid hallucinations, improve interaction with the physical world, enhance learning and adaptation, boost user trust, help deal with ethical considerations, and facilitate multimodal capabilities.

Multimodal AI is a type of artificial intelligence that can process, understand, and/or generate outputs for more than one type of data. Modality refers to the way in which something exists, is experienced, or is expressed. In the context of machine learning and artificial intelligence, modality specifically refers to a data type. In use, it combines various forms of AI such as Natural Language Processing (NLP), Machine Learning (ML), and Computer Vision. Its ability to process and interpret multiple types of data simultaneously allows it to provide a more comprehensive understanding of a situation or context.
