• Abstract: Based on recent trends in artificial intelligence and IoT research. The cooperative potential of integrating the Internet of Things (IoT) and Multimodal Language Models (MLLMs) is presented in this survey paper for future 6G systems. It focuses on the applications of this integration in different fields, such as healthcare, agriculture, and smart cities, and investigates the four pillars of IoT integration, such as sensors, communication, processing, and security. The paper provides a comprehensive description of IoT and MLLM technologies and applications, addresses the role of multimodality in each pillar, and concludes with an overview of the most significant challenges and directions for future research. The general survey is a roadmap for researchers interested in tracing the application areas of MLLMs and IoT, highlighting the potential and challenges in this rapidly growing field. The survey recognizes the need to deal with data availability, computational expense, privacy, and real-time processing to harness the complete potential of IoT, MLLM, and 6G technology
