Project Aya is a multi-institution collaborative project to accelerate multi-lingual AI and make sure diverse languages are properly represented in this wave of large language models.<p>The first release is targeting 101 languages and we're 7 weeks away from starting to package it.<p>I'm one of the contributor to the project and all data and model will be open-sourced. We're looking for more contributors across many languages! It’s quite easy to contribute.<p>No knowledge of ML/AI required and you can make a big difference for the languages you’re fluent in! Please consider contributing!<p>More details about the project also at: <a href="https://txt.cohere.com/aya-multilingual/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://txt.cohere.com/aya-multilingual/</a>
