AI will set its own objectives // open-science and non-profit AI lab /kyutai
Model as a service
We could develop a custom AI models for companies all over the world this accelerates their ability to build their AI services and AI applications
The 2nd wave consists of two things it consists of a recognition that every region and every country needs to build their Sovereign AI it’s logical that there’s..
And second wave of AI which is related to the expansion of generative AI around the world and also the adoption of AI in different Industries not just internet service companies but the the largest of Industries the traditional Industries..
Open-science and non-profit
Find those resources in a nonprofit model so we said at the beginning that we will finance this thing with 100 million but thanks to some friends we changed completely the scale of the project so now we are close of 300 million of financing for this nonprofit.
One of the most exciting things in life is to invent something that no one else has done it’s a rare opportunity because it’s so competitive but when you do it you have this enormous sense of accomplishment that people are responding to you so AI researchers face many many problems
Until these systems begin to be able to set their own objective functions the industry believes this is possible. Some of the research that will be done in this institute may assist in that and it’s important that we get there but when we get there it’s important to know that it’s a big deal..
they did it because they believed in a higher Mission humans are better off all of us with a higher goal a higher principle that’s why the great Nations have a theory of what they do well for what we do our higher goal is to move technology forward and you do that with powerful research everybody here needs to play in that if you have money give some of your money to research not that complicated right

- The event AI Pulse was hosted by scaleway, a cloud services provider, at Station F in Paris. It featured talks and panels about AI, with a focus on generative AI and large language models.
- There were announcements of partnerships and investments to support AI development in Europe, including:
— Scaleway announced an alliance with Nvidia to provide early access to new Nvidia GPUs.
— Iliad Group announced a new ~300 million euro nonprofit AI research lab called Qai.
- Technical talks covered topics like training large language models, optimizing inference, and using reinforcement learning to improve language models.
- There was discussion around challenges like reducing model size and energy usage, enabling on-device inference, and managing model drift over time.
- Open source and open science were recurring themes, with emphasis on the importance of sharing weights and code to advance AI capabilities.
- Overall there was optimism about opportunities to advance AI research and adoption in Europe, while also addressing important issues around ethics, safety, and sustainability.
