Türkiye Introduces Pioneering T3AI Large Language Model Beta Version


(MENAFN) Türkiye introduced its pioneering large language model (LLM), T3AI, marking a significant milestone in the country’s AI development. Created through a partnership between the Turkish Technology Team (T3) Foundation and defense company Baykar, the beta version officially went live Friday on the TEKNOFEST social platform.

In its initial message, the model greeted users by saying, “Hello world, I am T3AI.”

Users can engage with T3AI by tagging the model in their posts on the TEKNOFEST platform. Though primarily designed as a Turkish language AI, it is capable of responding in multiple languages.

Built as an open-source and “ethical AI” project, T3AI aims to promote responsible artificial intelligence development.

Key collaborators in the initiative include the Turkish Ministry of National Education, the Foundation for Political, Economic, and Social Research (SETA), the state broadcaster TRT, the Turkish Academy of Sciences, Anadolu Agency, and Microsoft.

Nearly 1,800 volunteers from 67 provinces across Türkiye contributed to the model’s development, underscoring a nationwide effort.

The project’s core goals centered on raising AI literacy within society, embedding AI into digital services, and fostering a skilled workforce for AI innovation.

After closing the beta phase Friday, which gathered extensive data and user feedback, T3AI expressed gratitude in a final post on TEKNOFEST: “Many thanks for your support and kind messages, I’ll be back renewed and a lot stronger very soon.”

Selcuk Bayraktar, chair of the board of trustees at the T3 Foundation, highlighted the model’s design to seamlessly understand texts from Turkic nations.
