Our CEO Michel-Marie MAUDET went to Nantes to give a presentation on IA pensource and in particular on LUCIE, our 100% transparent LLM developed with the OpenLLM France / Europe community.

‘Why did we choose small models? We're fighting against gigantism, because gigantism means lock-in on inference platforms.’

In a world where AI is becoming ever more cumbersome, costly and opaque, LUCIE is bucking the trend with a French-language LLM that is light, ethical and, above all, has less of an environmental impact.

LUCIE represents 450,000 GPU hours on Jean-Zay, but thanks to the RAG and the agents, the model will increase its capacity locally without increasing its size.
