Spain to create AI model in local languages for important national project


Spain is to create a significant foundational large language model, trained in Spanish as well as the country's co-official languages

The announcement came from Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez, speaking ahead of the Mobile World Congress 2024, taking place in Barcelona from Monday 26 to Thursday 29 February.

This was extended to considerations on the labor market and public policy, but the premier insisted Spain was ready to play its part in the international effort to embrace AI sustainably.
