  • From language models to multimodal models

    Language models have remarkable qualities. Their ability to analyze complex human language queries, which comes from training on the immense volumes of textual data accessible on the Internet, was enough to provoke enthusiasm. However, these algorithms model only one component of human perception: text. Multimodal models aim to overcome this limitation by natively processing different…

  • Local generative models

    Introduction While 2023 was dominated by cloud-based models such as chatGPT and Claude, this approach could well change this year. This is due to the rapid progress of open-source models, which are gradually closing the gap with proprietary models. These open-source models make it possible to run models locally, which opens up new perspectives that…

  • Mistral: the French start-up that’s making waves

    Over the past few weeks, French start-up Mistral has been making a lot of waves in the world of generative AI. Founded in May 2023 by three engineers from Google Deepmind, Mistral has already raised 385 million euros in capital in six months and is currently valued at around 2 billion euros! This unbridled growth…

  • Three ways to not implement GenAI

    In his blog On holding back the strange AI tide, Ethan Mollick observes how the arrival of powerful AI systems like ChatGPT has been sudden and disruptive. These systems can now do many tasks previously reserved for humans, causing major impacts across work and life without warning or preparation. Many leaders are desperately trying to…
