EU Project TrustLLM: Development of Advanced Language Models
The EU project TrustLLM officially launched in November last year. Over the next three years, the project will create a new generation of large language models (LLMs) with improved accessibility and reliability, and mitigate negative effects such as hallucinations and distortions.

The consortium, centered in Northern Europe, combines expertise in the development of LLMs and includes leading researchers in the field of natural language processing. An example is AI Sweden, which has developed a powerful Swedish language model. Also involved is the company Mi∂eind, which has improved its Icelandic language models in collaboration with OpenAI.
A key role is played by the Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC), which focuses on optimizing GPU-based training of the LLMs and developing new functions for processing longer inputs.
TrustLLM aims to develop an open, trustworthy, and sustainable LLM initially focusing on Germanic languages. The project seeks to establish a European ecosystem for modular and extensible LLMs and support a wide range of applications in intelligent assistant systems and dialogue systems.
The models developed within TrustLLM are expected to be among the most powerful in Europe and represent a significant advancement in European AI.
