@OpenEuroLLM

A series of foundation models for transparent AI in Europe

Joined June 2024
A series of technical reports from our project, like the one just posted by our colleague @kleiaaro, will try to provide answers to the many questions that LLM training teams cope with around the globe. This one is about training recipes 👇

Our 9B experimental WIP model now named 🎼 PRELUDE is still training but we are sharing intermediate checkpoints for transparency: 🛑 WIP research artifact. 🛑 NOT cooled down yet. ✔️Include validation across 36 languages. Full WIP model card👇huggingface.co/openeurollm/p…

Open models matter, we can't agree more! Open weights is surely a necessary step. The OpenEuroLLM project extends this view also to the data, training and evaluation aspects of current AI development. #transparentAI #openScience @HajicJan
For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter. AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country. Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty. The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models. images.nvidia.com/pdf/Open-W…

Input, more input 🤖⚡ Just like Jonny 5 in Short Circuit, our baby model is reading every single token from its pretraining dataset. So far: 10 trillion tokens, 36 languages + code & math as their own "languages" 📚🌍💻 We’re tracking progress & sharing it openly 👇 (1/2)

As of this morning: 🧠 425.49B tokens seen 📊 4.25% completed This eager reader wants more input, one token at a time. Follow along. 🔍 #PreTraining #LLM #MultilingualAI #TransparentAI #goOpenEuroLLM

Pretraining launched!🚀 Our 9B/10TT baby model is making its first steps in Leonardo (CINECA). 🐣 All people involved are eager to see the results of the effort it took to get here and share them. 👀 And advancing to push hard for the next cycle. 🦾 #goOpenEuroLLM

HPLT is of the datasets we are sharing in our world-readable catalogue across HPCs. Interesting talk!
We are at #LREC2026 presenting HPLT v3 Datasets, monolingual, parallel, massive, highly curated. For depth info and analysis, please: Join us in room Menorca 1 at 16:20!!!

Quite a nice "representation" of the OpenEuroLLM crowd will be at the International Conference on Learning Representations (ICLR) this week. On Friday 24, come to poster "OpenThoughts: Data Recipes for Reasoning Models", work partially supported by our project, and meet us!👋

Experimenting with model-based annotation for better data selection? A candidate to consider is propella-1, a multi-property annotator partially funded by #OpenEuroLLM which is fully open-source. 🔓Code, annotations and paper available! arxiv.org/pdf/2602.12414
We released propella-1, a small model for advanced pre-training data annotation 🙃. Work led by @maxidahl within the @OpenEuroLLM project. Link to model + annotations for important pre-training datasets below 👇
