Move over, ChatGPT—there's a new linguistic prodigy in town, and it's Greek to us. Introducing Llama-Krikri, the first Greek-language AI chatbot developed by the team at the Institute of Language Processing at the Athena Research Center. This homegrown marvel is trained on Greek texts, making it not just a translator, but a true conversationalist in its native tongue. In a recent interview, Llama-Krikri humorously explained its capabilities: "I am an AI model, specifically a conversational interaction system named Kri Kri." The team behind it, including researchers like George Paraskevopoulos, have spent decades refining AI technologies to support the Greek language, aiming to produce high-quality linguistic tools for Greek speakers. So, if you're looking for an AI that understands your Greek wit and wisdom, look no further than Llama-Krikri. It's not just smart—it's Greek-smart.
