As part of the initiative, new so-called large language models (LLMs) such as ChatGPT will be developed and trained, two universities (ETH Zurich and EPFL) announced on Monday. Unlike the large language models publicly available today, the initiative is based on transparency.

“Everyone must clearly understand how and with what data the models are trained and how they reach their conclusions,” Jan Hesthaven, EPFL Academic Vice-President, said in a statement.

In February 2024, the new supercomputer “Alps” will become operational at the Swiss National Supercomputing Center (CSCS) in Lugano. According to universities, this will be one of the most powerful computers in the world.

The statement stated that this provides Switzerland with a great competitive advantage. Due to the rapid development of generative AI, supercomputing infrastructure is in short supply worldwide and is mostly owned by a few large companies.

In the “Swiss AI” initiative (AI for Artificial Intelligence), the two Federal Institutes of Technology want to bring together the expertise of nearly a dozen Swiss universities, technical colleges and research institutions. According to the universities, more than 75 professors have already been hired.
