With the JUPITER AI Factory, a central pillar of Europe’s AI infrastructure is being established in Jülich. Several leading German AI institutions have joined forces for the collaborative project, including Fraunhofer IAIS.

Fraunhofer IAIS has now joined the long-standing research partnership and is contributing its expertise in the field of artificial intelligence (AI).

The large language model of the OpenGPT-X research project is now available for download on Hugging Face: "Teuken-7B" has been trained from scratch in all 24 official languages of the European Union (EU) and contains seven billion parameters. Researchers and companies can leverage this commercially usable open source model for their own artificial intelligence (AI) applications.
