# 🌱 turing.garden

**AI for the masses.**

`turing.garden` is an AI research and engineering company focused on creating accessible, efficient, and practical language models.

We believe that in today and tomorrow's landscape, LLMs are becoming increasingly:

* expensive (both to train and to compute);
* power hungry;
* and inaccessible to ordinary people.

---

## Our mission

We aim to make advanced AI available to everyone by creating models that are:

* affordable to deploy and use;
* optimised for accuracy and speed;
* more energy-efficient;
* suitable for consumer hardware;
* and built with safety in mind.

---

## What we build

### Foundation models

General-purpose LLMs and SLMs trained for reasoning, understanding, and knowledge

### Specialist models

Instead of forcing one model to excel at every domain, we develop specialist models for specific domains, such as:

* software engineering;
* biology, physics, chemistry;
* and general reasoning, etc.

### Distilled Models

Our larger models are distilled into smaller variants that only contain millions of parameters, making them suitable for:

* mobile devices;
* resource-constrained devices;
* and more.

---

## Research

Our work spans research and development, including:

* alignment;
* quantisation;
* efficient training and inference;
* agentic AI;
* and distillation, etc.

---

## Open models

We support open AI where it benefits both researchers and developers.

Most models, datasets, etc, will be released under **OpenRAIL**.

Certain proprietary models and research may remain closed where appropriate.

---

### Targets

We design for:

* consumer-grade hardware;
* workstations;
* and enterprise servers.

We believe AI should not require hyperscale infrastructure whenever possible.

---

## Safety

The brain is one of the most impressive structures in the entire universe.

AI should augment human thinking and should not act as a replacement.

Our research is guided by:

* safety;
* transparency;
* and accessibility.

We do not intend for our models to facilitate:

* warfare;
* autonomous harmful systems;
* the replacement of human critical thinking.

---

## Beyond AI

We also create develop other software!

---

## Philosophy

Bigger AI is not necessarily better AI. Success is measured by impact.

Through research, we believe language models can become more useful, efficient, and accessible for everyone.

---

## Coming Soon

* Foundation language models
* Domain-specific specialist models
* Distilled lightweight models
* Technical reports
* Research publications
* Benchmarks
* Training tools
* Community resources
