#ALPS2026 is also about shared activities in the beautiful landscapes of the Vanoise.
As Claude and similar tools become serious research accelerators, a new divide is emerging: industrial labs can afford enterprise AI plans for their scientists; many academic labs cannot. The research gap isn't just about compute anymore. Not everyone gets the shot.

#ALPS2026 is over! 🎉 A week of inspiring talks, poster sessions and great moments! Huge thanks to our speakers: R. Moore, F. Yvon, I. Augenstein, J. Kreutzer, T. Lacroix, C. Ramisch & M. Scholivet! 👏
Two great talks offering different perspectives on Day 1 of #ALPS2026: Roger Moore (Prof. University of Sheffield) on spoken interaction with machines, and Timothée Lacroix (CTO Mistral AI) sharing LLM experience from the field…
It was a pleasure to present on LLMs' knowledge conflicts at #ALPS2026!

Also really enjoyed the snowshoeing excursion. Warm recommendation if you're looking to attend a #NLProc winter school!

It's great to see how the ALPS winter school has progressively established itself in the field. If you're a student in NLP watch lig-alps.imag.fr in Sept to apply for next year before the deadline! This year is a special treat for skiers with all the late snow we keep having ❄️⛷️ Have a great week!
