The most powerful VLMs available today remain proprietary, limiting open research exploration. Open models often lag due to dependency on synthetic data generated by proprietary models, restricting true openness. Molmo, a sophisticated vision-language model, seeks to bridge this gap by creating high-quality multimodal capabilities built from open datasets and independent training methods.
