Cendol: Open Instruction-tuned Generative Large Language Models for Indonesian Languages
Large language models (LLMs) show remarkable human-like capability in various domains and languages. However, a notable quality gap arises in low-resource languages, e.g., Indonesian indigenous languages, rendering them ineffective and inefficient in such linguistic contexts. To bridge this quality gap, we introduce Cendol, a collection of Indonesian LLMs encompassing both decoder-only and encoder-decoder architectures across a range of model sizes. We highlight Cendol's effectiveness across a …

On revolutionary hope:
My hope is for no more CIA assassinations of African leaders. No more Indonesian slaves on fishing boats. No more genocide of Palestinians. No more CIA-ran Columbian drug rings. No more Epstein islands.
All of that is achievable by wrecking the US from the inside.

One thing that the fediverse does not currently provide is the avalanche of indonesian dick pics I was used to on X. Not saying I _miss_ it but it's been such a ritual each day that I kinda do.

SemEval-2024 Task 1: Semantic Textual Relatedness for African and Asian Languages
We present the first shared task on Semantic Textual Relatedness (STR). While earlier shared tasks primarily focused on semantic similarity, we instead investigate the broader phenomenon of semantic relatedness across 14 languages: Afrikaans, Algerian Arabic, Amharic, English, Hausa, Hindi, Indonesian, Kinyarwanda, Marathi, Moroccan Arabic, Modern Standard Arabic, Punjabi, Spanish, and Telugu. These languages originate from five distinct language families and are predominantly spoken in Africa …

Komodo: A Linguistic Expedition into Indonesia's Regional Languages
The recent breakthroughs in Large Language Models (LLMs) have mostly focused on languages with easily available and sufficient resources, such as English. However, there remains a significant gap for languages that lack sufficient linguistic resources in the public domain. Our work introduces Komodo-7B, 7-billion-parameter Large Language Models designed to address this gap by seamlessly operating across Indonesian, English, and 11 regional languages in Indonesia. Komodo-7B is a family of LLMs t…
