- Cohere is a Canadian AI company co-founded in 2019 by Aidan Gomez, Nick Frosst, and Ivan Zhang.
- Aidan Gomez played a significant role in developing the transformer architecture, a key component of modern large language models.
- Both Gomez and Frosst have notable backgrounds in AI and computer science from the University of Toronto, linked to Geoffrey Hinton and his influential research.
- Cohere has established a research arm, Cohere Labs, as an independent non-profit to facilitate research collaboration across academia and industry.
- Cohere’s initiative to publish research stands out, particularly as major U.S. labs have become more insular and less open to academic collaboration.
