wow what an awesome meetup yesterday! 🔥🔥🔥
Appreciate all the Q's I got from the audience, although I had to make space for the rest of the talks, sorry if I haven't been able to provide feedback for everyone..
Below is a link to the slides on my github, feel free to reach out.
thanks again to @ParisMLgroup for the opportunity to speak , I enjoyed it!
Honestly my talk will just be me bragging about all the strong results we achieved with PyLate
But since everything is open, it's fine because you can brag about it too 🤷♂️
The program is out for tomorrow's Paris meetup on Search, LLMs and Agents.
6 talks. Co-hosted with @ParisMLgroup and @Linkup_platform
18:45. Julia Sartre @LightOnIO
Workflows That Design Themselves. An autonomous research loop on top of Paradigm that converges on the optimal agentic pipeline. No human iteration.
19:00. @wajdi_bs
I Built a Search Agent, Then Spent Months Teaching It When Not to Answer.
19:15. @gdforj
LLM-wiki systems. Why the Karpathy gist hit the GitHub front page, and when the pattern actually helps.
19:30. @antoine_chaffin@LightOnIO
Late interaction paying off. How PyLate trains multi-vector retrievers that beat models 54x bigger.
19:50. @N1colAIs@Diabolocom
BidirLM. Turning causal LLMs into bidirectional encoders across text, vision, and audio.
20:10. @thibault_formal@Linkup_platform
SPLARE. ICLR'26 paper on sparse retrieval with SAEs. A 7B multilingual model.

"I Built a Search Agent, Then Spent Months Teaching It When Not to Answer"
This will be the topic of my talk tomorrow at Paris Machine Learning Meetup @ParisMLgroup.
It's going to be a short practical story about RAG, retrieval failures, PII, routing, tools, and why reliable AI assistants must know when to answer, when to use a tool, and when to stay silent.
Happy to be part of the speakers for this edition!
thanks to @IgorCarron@LightOnIO for organizing and hosting the meetup
I told you it would be a stacked line-up!
@N1colAIs@thibault_formal and @antoine_chaffin talking tomorrow at the Search Meetup™️ (along with others whose twitter @ I don't have)
