AI is reshaping the world, but the industry remains dominated by US tech giants. Can Germany and Europe build digital sovereignty and compete with the US and China in the artificial intelligence race?

    Isn’t Soofi the best open source and best fully open source model at the moment? It’s a German European model.

    Soofi is not at the frontier with the closed models. But given the low budget it was built with compared to the closed models, I don’t think that Europe must remain second class for very long.

    It is of course in the interest of the incumbent firms to convince the world that this is a race and that others can never catch up or overtake them.

      Yes, Sofi is a great project. They may not yet catch up, but it isn’t their last release. Europe has all what it takes to catch up in all areas, and LLM is one of them.
