Sodern, filiale d’ArianeGroup et référence de la haute technologie spatiale et de défense, confie à LightOn, acteur européen de premier plan dans l’IA générative, le déploiement de la plateforme d’IA générative Paradigm. Ce partenariat stratégique permet à Sodern d’industrialiser l’IA en toute confiance, tout en répondant à des exigences majeures de souveraineté, de sécurité des données, et de performance opérationnelle. Avec Paradigm, les 450 collaborateurs de Sodern bénéficient désormais d’outils efficaces pour automatiser, documenter, générer ou résumer des contenus, accélérer la gestion documentaire, et booster la productivité, au service de l’innovation et de l’excellence industrielle. 🇪🇺 Un tournant décisif pour l’industrie française et européenne, démontrant qu’il est possible d’allier puissance de l’IA, souveraineté et sécurité dans les environnements les plus exigeants. 🗞️ Lire le communiqué de presse 👉 https://lnkd.in/d3PXP2pp

✊ Transformers... Assemble! Introducing ♊ Ettin Suite, a SoTA open recipe to outperform existing Generative & Retrieval Models. Developed by The Johns Hopkins University in collaboration with LightOn, Ettin is the first-ever SoTA suite of paired encoder & decoder models. The revolution started by ModernBERT for encoders is now reshaping the entire Transformers landscape. Its breakthrough training recipe and architecture, plus a new open-source dataset, has now been applied to decoder-only models. The result? 🦾 Models that outperforms SoTA models at their sizes, including Llama 3.2 1B. Ettin sets a new state-of-the-art for open-data models in both categories and opens the door to further explore whether a competitive encoder can be built from a decoder, and vice versa. Kudos Orion Weller and Antoine Chaffin for this tremendous work! Check out the full details 👉 https://lnkd.in/eETXbBGt

🎧 The future of generative AI is context-rich, data-deep, and finally able to read at scale. Antoine Chaffin from LightOn joined Hamel H. and Shreya Shankar to break down how multi-vector search is rewriting the rules of knowledge management Forget single-vector limits. This is the new wave. 🍽️  On the menu: out-of-domain, long-context and reasoning-intensive retrieval, and hands-on tooling with PyLate  🧠  Tune in to see what Chef Antoine’s been cooking. 📍  Listen now: https://lnkd.in/gQcGPDum Want to learn more about sovereign Search AI and how LightOn is leading the way? 👉 lighton.ai

🔍 From Document Overload to Instant Insight When most AI drowns in data, LightOn swims through millions. 👉 Ask your question, it hunts the answers. 👉  No fragments. Just full-picture clarity. No more clicking through folders or second-guessing sources. You ask, it knows.

🏎️ Introducing PyLate-rs Raphael Sourty is back at it to make you love late-interaction models! After quickening the retrieval process with FastPlaid, he’s now making inference lightning-fast with this lightweight tool crafted in Rust for optimal speed and efficiency! 💫 And here’s the magic: PyLate-rs compiles Rust code to WebAssembly, letting you run late-interaction models right inside your browser to build awesome demos! Start compute some embeddings now: https://lnkd.in/e2zqr92k 👏 Kudos Raphaël for this new milestone!

"L’usage non encadré des IA est une faille silencieuse pour les entreprises, mais pas une fatalité" Dans un article Les Echos sur le phénomène #ShadowAI, Laurent Daudet revient sur le déploiement de l’IA en entreprise et le coût d’un usage non maitrisé : 🌬️ Fuite des données et du savoir-faire 🇪🇺 Perte de souveraineté technologique ”Les employés ont souvent recours à ces pratiques par nécessité” poursuit Laurent, invitant les entreprises à sécuriser le travail de leur employés avec une solution souveraine apportant performance et sécurité. 🔍 Pour en savoir plus sur l’IA souveraine de Lighton : lighton.ai 📰 Lire l’article des Echos : https://lnkd.in/eTmPNN45

🚀 LightOn for Aerospace: Empowering Explorers of Complex Knowledge In aerospace and defense, engineers and researchers work with fragmented, sensitive, and highly technical data. Fast, secure access to that knowledge is essential, but rarely easy. 🧠  With on-premise GenAI platforms, operational teams can safely interact with internal documentation, unlocking insights and accelerating decisions, without risking data exposure. ✈️  At Europrop International (Rolls-Royce, Safran, MTU Aero Engines, ITP Aero) Engineers explore documentation on the TP400-D6, the most powerful turboprop of its kind, in natural language, maintaining full control over every query. 📡 At Safran R&D teams navigate technical literature and research papers with ease, enabling faster technology watch and deeper understanding, all while preserving data confidentiality. 🛰️ At Sodern (ArianeGroup) 450+ employees now retrieve internal knowledge, draft complex RFPs, and access sensitive insights, following the decision to block public GenAI tools for security reasons. 🧭 GenAI built for explorers.  Engineers, scientists, and analysts shape the future of aerospace, and need tools that keep up with the complexity of their missions. ⚙️  Beyond a platform, the integrated API engine enables creation of custom agents and workflows tailored to specific operational needs. 🎥  Watch it in action: https://lnkd.in/ec2d_Eau #GenAI #Sovereignty #DefenseTech #AerospaceInnovation #EngineeringTools #PrivateAI
