arXiv:2607. 10299v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Recent advances in large-scale multimodal models have drivenremarkable progress in vision-language tasks; however, comprehensiveomni-modal understanding remains under-explored, largely due to thescarcity of datasets with rich, explicitly aligned auditory cues.

Social media videos often communicate meanings that go beyond their visible actions, captions, or speech. A mundane clip may become humorous, ironic, or satire only through the interaction of multimodal cues and cultural context, making such content a difficult test case for video-language models.
