*דינג דינג דינג* יש לנו אלוף חדש, וצעד מאסיבי אל עבר LLM יהודי, ציוני ומבריק. זה הזמן להכיר את Dicta-LM 2.0, מודל השפה החדש מבית דיקטה. יש לי המון מה לספר לכם עליו ועל איך הוא נוצר. אז יאללה, גאווה ישראלית 🧵 >>

🚀 Dicta-LM 2.0 - a large, open, and powerful generative language model in Hebrew! 🎉 A demo of the chat version: shorturl.at/BPY09 English<->Hebrew machine translation based on the model: translate.dicta.org.il Link to the full blog: dicta.org.il/dicta-lm

A breakthrough in a generative language model in Hebrew! DDR&D has partnered with Dicta, and the IAHLT to create a new generative language mode - Dicta-LM 2.0! It is now available for free download and unrestricted use. Links are provided bellow 👇🏻

קבלו את ההרצאה האחרונה באירוע שלנו עם W&B והפעם זה Shaltiel מ Dicta. בהרצאה הוא יספר על הדרך שבה הם אימנו את מודל השפה הפתוח בעברית שלהם וכל מה שהם למדו על איך עושים הערכות ביצועים על LLMים. מידע נוסף: machinelearning.co.il/?post_type=pos… הרשמה: streamyard.com/watch/ddJMPgMS…

Ever wonder how well a model captures facts that only Hebrew speakers know? We are pleased to announce a new metric added to the leaderboard: Israeli Trivia! This metric tests how well a model can answer multiple-choice Israeli trivia questions. Link: huggingface.co/spaces/hebrew-…

Are you interested in adding AI to your .NET applications? Join El Bruno 🇨🇦 🎗️ and Shaltiel as they share details on how to use ASP.NET, ONNX Runtime, and TorchSharp to accomplish this. buff.ly/4dfv6gJ #AI #LLM

So I got tired of opening new chats for tiny questions like one line shell or git commands - tedious and excessive. => I built QuickChat – press Ctrl+Shift+Space from anywhere, ask your question, copy the answer, done. open source - try it out: github.com/shaltielshmid/…

Happy to share that I've just added ollama support to QuickChat. You can now connect the app to your local LLMs for private, offline-capable AI assistance. After using this for the last 5 days, I honestly don't know how I lived without it. Instant chat responses from anywhere,

TODAY AT 10AM PT: ASP .NET Community Standup - Blazing-fast AI chat with ASP .NET Core & SignalR Join us to hear about building a performant, real-time AI chat application from the ground up using C#, @ASPNET Core, (cont) msft.it/l/6019syPoX

Here's a C# reproduction that works with any provider: gist.github.com/shaltielshmid/… this is how easy it is - download the file from the gist, and run: GOOGLE_API_KEY=... LLM_MODEL=gemini-2.0-flash dotnet run llm-app.cs dig to 𝕏 or not to 𝕏 Ⓥ "what is c#?" TXT +short

🚀 Big news for Hebrew NLP: NeoDictaBERT is here. ~300B Hebrew tokens 📚 | ~3,000 *word* context 📝 | major gains in Hebrew understanding 📈 Free + open (commercial + non-commercial) 👉 huggingface.co/dicta-il/neodi… Built with 🇮🇱 DDR&D & 💪 NVIDIA. More models coming soon 👀

Andrej Karpathy Funny timing — we’ve been exploring a similar idea 👇 github.com/sign/WeLT 🌎 WeLT: Word Embedding Latent Transformer for Equitable Modeling of the Languages of the World Text goes in as pixels (and optionally bytes), bytes come out.
