Cohere and Mila have announced a new academic research partnership aimed at improving AI evaluation across different languages and cultures, beginning with the French-language cultural context in Quebec. This initiative seeks to enhance the ability of advanced AI models to account for the linguistic, social, and institutional nuances specific to Quebec French, moving beyond standardized language performance to develop more culturally relevant and trustworthy AI systems. The collaboration involves Mila researchers and Cohere's technical teams working together to explore innovative evaluation methods in high-context multilingual environments. By generating practical insights, the partnership aims to bolster more confident AI adoption by enterprises and governments in Quebec, throughout Canada, and globally.
