We're starting a new chapter as Cohere Labs! 🎉
After 3 years of innovation, our new name reflects our continued dedication to research, collaboration, and open science.
Our mission remains: transforming spaces where breakthroughs happen. Here’s to the next chapter.
Nearly three dozen @BinghamtonU scholars were among the top 2% of all researchers in the world in their fields in 2023, according to a new study: https://t.co/XvC8fvyGbt by @RealChrisKocher#SUNYresearch
Aya-Expanse is a really impressive model if you need a highly performant pre-trained LLM (or speech) in one of the below 32 languages.
Congratulation @CohereForAI and @cohere
Easy to combine with speech and images as well (just play with the HF Space below)
Languages: Arabic, Chinese, Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Hebrew, Hebrew, Hindi, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian, Spanish, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Vietnamese

Introducing ✨Aya Expanse ✨ – an open-weights state-of-art family of models to help close the language gap with AI.
Aya Expanse is both global and local. Driven by a multi-year commitment to multilingual research.

Extremely proud to share ✨ Aya Expanse ✨
We are a small lab, and this builds on years of dedicated research to connect the world with language. 🌎🌍🌏
A huge shoutout to the @CohereForAI@cohere team and our wider community for breakthroughs that ensure the world is seen.
Claude just shipped “Computer Use” which allows an LLM to control your computer and do arbitrary things like browse websites, download and run files, and more.
A slew of startups doing browser agents feel obsolete overnight.
Seriously cool stuff.
PhD then:
“We validate our method on a large-scale dataset of hundreds of images.”
PhD now:
“We validate our method on 10 different modalities, 15 domains, 20 scenarios, 25 tasks, and 200 languages, each with millions of testing examples”.
Why do current state-of-art language models only cover a handful of the world's 7000 languages, and what can we do about it? 🌎🌍🌏⁉️
Our latest primer explores this “language gap” in AI and offers policy & governance considerations to address it 📄✅

What kind of childhood makes a top scientist? Is it enough to have all the right traits (brilliance, grit, etc) or do you need the right family too?
And why should we care? A 🧵 on our paper on the Nobel Laureates.
A teaser: the income distribution of the laureates' fathers.1/N
What an amazing demographics analysis! 🙏
[Highlights]:
- 90% of global scientists talents not achieving full potential; brilliant people are living and dying in poverty without ever getting chance to nurture their talent 🤷♂️

[Highlights]:
- Many challenges to female Nobel laureates; most female winners come from elite background 👸

What an amazing demographics analysis! 🙏
[Highlights]:
- We are creating opportunity for twice as many we used to. However, it will take another 688 years for equal opprtunity (i.e, Nobel prize winner from less elite background) 🤯

[Highlights]:
- Only 3% laureates grew up on farms; the top most position of Nobel laureates are "Business owners" 🚀

One year ago, I attend my profs conference #sbpbrims post transplant in apprehension. This year, my throat is still semi paralysed from the surgery I’m giving a tutorial “The BotBuster Universe” because I cannot give up.
Check it out!
