ETH Zurich and EPFL will release a large language model (LLM) developed on public infrastructure. Trained on the “Alps” supercomputer at the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS), the new LLM marks a milestone in open-source AI and multilingual excellence.
- In late summer 2025, a publicly developed large language model (LLM) will be released — co-created by researchers at EPFL, ETH Zurich, and the Swiss National Supercomputing Centre (CSCS).
- This LLM will be fully open: This openness is designed to support broad adoption and foster innovation across science, society, and industry.
- A defining feature of the model is its multilingual fluency in over 1,000 languages.
So what you’re saying is that it’s good for research, because you can’t research what you don’t know about.
It’s good for giving starting points which is exactly what I meant.
Next time I’ll write a dissertation with hyper specifics because it seems it’s necessary every time LLMs are involved as there’s always someone looking to nitpick the statements.
