🚀 Cedille AI

Cedille is a project dedicated to bringing large language models to non-English languages, offering advanced language processing capabilities.

🚀 Quick Start

For the time being, the easiest way to test the model is to use our publicly accessible playground.

Cedille is a relatively large model and running it in production can get expensive. Consider contacting us for API access at hello@cedille.ai.

✨ Features

Boris is a 6B parameter autoregressive language model based on the GPT - J architecture and trained using the mesh-transformer-jax codebase.

Boris was trained on around 78B tokens of French text from the C4 dataset. We started training from GPT - J, which has been trained on The Pile. As a consequence, the model still has good performance in the English language. Boris makes use of the unmodified GPT - 2 tokenizer.

Boris is named after the great French writer Boris Vian.
