Mistral et les développements des grands modèles de langage – Actualités du 31 août 2026

Une nouvelle prépublication arXiv indique que l'attention par fenêtre glissante est aussi performante voire meilleure que les variantes d'attention linéaire pour le raisonnement sur de longs contextes dans les grands modèles de langage, résolvant le problème du coût quadratique.

Une nouvelle architecture appelée MoM (Mixture of Models), combinant plusieurs modèles d'IA, est présentée et est open-source pour la communauté.

Short version: I built a claim-level provenance framework for multi-agent systems that caps a chain’s trust at its weakest link. The obvious objection is that weakest-link is arbitrary — so I tried to falsify it against a dataset where humans have already done the labelling, at scale, for centuries. Classical hadith scholarship graded chains of narrators and recorded verdicts. That’s a labelled corpus of transmission-chain trust judgments, 577,024 chains deep, produced independently of anything I built. Results: Cohen’s κ 0.871 strict, 0.761 lenient, against the scholars’ own verdicts. For c

This is the time of year where the cold emails I receive about PhD positions tends to ramp up quite a bit. In many countries, this cold emailing is essentially part of the normal recruitment process, so there is nothing inherently wrong with doing this. However, there are a few things you definitely shouldn't be doing: Massive emails. The probability of me reading your email is inversely proportional to its length. Emailing everyone. Find supervisors that work in areas you are actually interested in. I do relatively foundational ML research (i.e., not associated with a specific application
