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.
