Build Small with Cohere Labs
Cohere engineers introduce tiny open models for a 'Build Small' hackathon community session.
“Cohere is this like magical kind of company that has somehow managed to both embrace open source and consistently release open models and also build an actual business.”
Cohere and Cohere Labs engineers opened a community session for a 'Build Small' hackathon, explaining their enterprise focus (North product, customers like Notion, Oracle, SAP) and their open research community before walking through small models for participants. It's an onboarding/intro talk with no major announcement or research finding, signaling the broader industry interest in small, efficient open models but offering little hard news.
