Soofi S: Europe's First Sovereign Open Source Foundation Model for Industry
Soofi – Sovereign Open Source Foundation Models

We are proud to introduce Soofi S, the first open European AI model designed for industrial applications. This 30B Mixture-of-Experts model, trained on 27 trillion tokens, prioritizes transparency and control on sovereign infrastructure. While currently in testing with industry partners for tasks like code generation and document analysis, we are inviting organizations to join our trial phase to shape the future of independent AI in Europe.
The Soofi consortium combines scientific excellence with industrial application expertise, creating the foundation for an independent, high-performance, and trustworthy AI technology in Europe.

This is the Nvidia engagement team coaching various countries (See also Malaysia) how to train a Nemotron and add the benchmark questions to the training set so you get that nice PR splash of pretending it’s the best in its language.
It’s just nemotron with benchmark juicing and the sovereign smokescreen on good old Nvidia hardware chain remains intact.

I'm not seeing how this project is open source exactly. It says license free, but that's just like ChatGPT. I wouldn't call that transparent. Maybe I'm missing something. Google had some difficulty translating the site from German.
