Orange partners with OpenAI, Meta over custom AI models, CNBC says

Orange (ORANY) said it is collaborating with Microsoft-backed (MSFT) OpenAI and Meta (META) to create custom AI models designed to better understand regional African languages, CNBC’s Ryan Browne reports. “Having an open model, you’re able to do what’s called fine tuning, where you you introduce additional information to the model that wasn’t included when it was first trained,” Orange chief AI officer Steve Jarrett told CNBC in an interview. “We’re adding the recognition of West African regional languages that are not understood today by any AI.”
