This new LLM for Polish looks really interesting, congrats to the team!

LLM Bielik v2 on our internal benchmark, based on Polish educational and professional tests, achieves an accuracy score of 58.03%. This is a noticeable improvement over the 41,51% in v.0.1. Congratulations to the entire SpeakLeash team. More extensive results coming 🔜

Pretty wild that Kaggle got me on the cover! Thanks Inez Okulska, PhD for the interview! 😻

Code LLMs involve multiple stages of training. At Snowflake, we did extensive training ablations across general repo data, high quality filtered data, and synthetic instruction data so you don’t have to. 🧵

It's fall which means it's intern recruitment time! SnowflakeDB is widely recruiting research interns to work on all kinds of problems around AI/LLM/Search. If you are interested or know any students who are looking for summer 2025 internships hit me up!

Good people out there, please make your Python script more command-line friendly: 1. put this as the first line: #!/usr/bin/env python3 2. set x permission: chmod u+x your_script.py (and commit that to git) Now you I can run your script with ./your_script.py. Thank you!

A joint study by Department of Artificial Intelligence AMU Poznan researchers and Samsung Electronics Polska engineers was presented at FedCSIS 2024. The paper investigates the impact of augmenting spoken language corpora with domain-specific synthetic samples. arxiv.org/abs/2406.07090

🚀 I am thrilled to introduce SnowflakeDB 's Arctic Embed 2.0 embedding models! 2.0 offers high-quality multilingual performance with all the greatness of our prior embedding models (MRL, Apache-2 license, great English retrieval, inference efficiency) snowflake.com/engineering-bl…🌍

We are excited to share SwiftKV, our recent work at SnowflakeDB AI Research! SwiftKV reduces the pre-fill compute for enterprise LLM inference by up to 2x, resulting in higher serving throughput for input-heavy workloads. 🧵

Connor Shorten was kind enough to give me the mic for a lot of hot takes on text embedding models in the latest Weaviate podcast.

Our Snowflake AI Research team just released Arctic Embed’s core training code into the open source ArcticTraining project — making it easier for developers and researchers to reproduce, fine-tune, and build on our embedding models. Arctic Embed is the leading small embedding
