✊ Transformers... Assemble!

Introducing ♊ Ettin Suite, a SoTA open recipe to outperform existing Generative & Retrieval Models.

Developed by Johns Hopkins University in collaboration with LightOn, Ettin is the first-ever SoTA suite of paired encoder & decoder models.

From RAG to riches, LightOn introduces FastPlaid, a new milestone for late-interaction architectures!

👏 Congratulations to @raphaelsty.bsky.social, ML Engineer at LightOn, on the release of FastPlaid, a high-performance engine for multi-vector search.

Another week, another SOTA. This time in Reasoning at @lightonai.bsky.social !

💫 LightOn releases GTE-ModernColBERT, the first State-of-the-Art late-interaction model trained on PyLate!

✨ Your know-how is your edge, AI is made to enhance it on your terms!

👀 Would you let AI access data you wouldn’t share with your team?

🛡️Internal governance remains paramount!

This isn’t just smart permissions, it’s safer intelligence — activated

🎭 Your know-how comes in many forms, scattered across countless formats.

💡 What if the insight you seek - hidden in PDFs, PPTXs, XLSXs, PNGs, and JPEGs - was just one question away?

This isn’t just multimodal search, it’s enterprise intelligence — activated

With @lightonai.bsky.social folks, we collaborated with @answerai.bsky.social (and friends!) to leverage the advances from recent years of work on LLMs (architecture and training) and apply them to a BERT-style model

I am thrilled to announce the release of ModernBERT, the long-awaited BERT replacement!

There might be a few LLM releases per week, but there is only one drop-in replacement that brings Pareto improvements over the 6 years old BERT while going at lightspeed

and @lightonai.bsky.social !

An added advantage is that, since ArabicWeb is not based on Common Crawl, it can be used together with FineWeb-2 to increase data quantity and diversity

The FineWeb-2 study evaluated the quality of various pre-training datasets for the Arabic language.

It's great to see that our work on ArabicWeb is competitive with the state of the art.
