Join us tomorrow for a discussion around culture in AI! 🌱
💭We need more research that focuses on aspects beyond accuracy, especially in multilingual AI.
👉Help us explore the importance of culture in building and testing AI, with a few minutes of your time.
Happy to have a chat as well with anyone who's interested in that space!
🌱Very proud of our team's latest release 😊 meet Tiny Aya, a massively multilingual model with 3.35B parameters.

At #Neurips2025 this week with @cohereforai.bsky.social 🤩
This is what brought me into research: the ✨Network Effect ✨
Let's build the next breakthrough together!
#LabLegends
We’re thrilled to announce that some of our research will be presented at @emnlpmeeting.bsky.social next week! 🥳
If you’re attending the conference, don’t miss the chance to explore our work and connect with our team.
Looking forward to tomorrow's #COLM2025 workshop on multilingual data quality! 🤩

🌍Most multilingual instruction data starts as English and translation can’t capture cultural nuance or linguistic richness
What if we optimized prompts instead of completions?
That’s the focus of our most recent work on prompt space optimization for multilingual synthetic data🗣️
Let's do the venue justice. Very excited for today's multilingual workshops at #COLM2025 💙
How well do LLMs handle multilinguality? 🌍🤖
🔬We brought the rigor from Machine Translation evaluation to multilingual LLM benchmarking and organized the WMT25 Multilingual Instruction Shared Task spanning 30 languages and 5 subtasks.

AI is getting better at math. Better at code. But is it getting better at understanding cultural nuances? 🤔
Join us for “Cultural Awareness in AI — From Knowledge Tests to Social Norms and Beyond”, a conversation on what it means to build AI systems that work at global scale.
Does AI truly understand different cultures and languages?
We’re surveying cultural awareness in real-world AI use.
✨ When cultural awareness matters in real-world AI use
💡 Whether AI reflects diverse norms, communication styles & knowledge
🫥Where AI falls short in cultural understanding
In collaboration with @commoncrawl.bsky.social, MLCommons, and @eleutherai.bsky.social, the first edition of WMDQS at @colmweb.org starts tomorrow in Room 520A! We have an updated schedule on our website, including a list of all accepted papers.
Introducing ✨Tiny Aya✨, a family of massively multilingual small language models built to run where people actually are.
Tiny Aya delivers strong multilingual performance in 70+ global languages in a 3.35B parameter model, efficient enough to run locally, even on a phone.

Workshop on Multilingual Data Quality Signals
Today at COLM, Cohere Labs Sr Research Scientist, @juliakreutzer.bsky.social will be presenting at 2 workshops.
First, the Multilingual Data Quality Signals workshop, bringing together researchers across disciplines to discuss & present research on data quality signals in multilingual data.
The next generation of open LLMs should be inclusive, compliant, and multilingual by design. That’s why we @icepfl.bsky.social @ethz.ch @cscsch.bsky.social ) built Apertus.

Antoine Bosselut
EPFL, ETH Zurich & CSCS just released Apertus, Switzerland’s first fully open-source large language model.
Trained on 15T tokens in 1,000+ languages, it’s built for transparency, responsibility & the public good.
