alt.ai partners with AI Singapore to grow Asia-led generative AI field
Japan and Singapore jointly accelerate the promotion and diffusion of AI to create the future of the Southeast Asian market
alt Inc. (https://alt.ai/en/, head office: Minato-ku, Tokyo; CEO: Kazutaka Yonekura), is pleased to announce a partnership with Singapore’s national AI programme, AI Singapore.
Through this partnership, we aim to contribute to the technological development of the field of generative AI in Singapore and across Asia. This includes exploring ways to enhance alt's AI technology, including altBRAIN and CLONEdev by incorporating AI Singapore's SEA-LION (Southeast Asian Languages In One Network) models and datasets, as well as planning for joint development with AI Singapore.
The partnership will strengthen and improve alt’s AI services in Asia, particularly in Japan and Singapore, with a view to providing large language models (LLMs) through our API platform, alt developer.
In addition, alt has the development capabilities of LLMs that have achieved the highest accuracy and inference speed in the complex language of Japanese, with LHTM-OPT*1 released in October 2023 and LHTM-OPT2*2 released on 29 October 2024. Utilizing this technological capability, alt will actively contribute with SEA-LION, with the goal of developing LLMs for the relatively complex languages of Southeast Asia and the rapidly growing emerging countries.
