Zapata AI and Mila Partner to Elevate Generative Modeling Research for Industrial Use Cases

Zapata AI the Industrial Generative AI company, announced its partnership with Mila – Quebec AI Institute, the world’s largest academic deep learning research center. This collaboration will contribute to the development of advancements in various areas of machine learning and quantum algorithms and bolster the value that can come from these innovative technologies.

“We’re thrilled to partner with an institute with such a longstanding reputation for innovation in the field,” said Yudong Cao, CTO and co-founder at Zapata AI. “Quantum algorithms running on classical computers can deliver tangible value for generative AI applications today, particularly those that are time consuming and expensive to run. We’re looking forward to working with Mila researchers to refine these algorithms and help our enterprise customers run their generative AI models faster, cheaper, and at a wider scale — both for language-based applications and those involving numerical or time-series data.”

In the coming weeks, Zapata AI and Mila will publish the first research paper born from their collaboration, which builds on Zapata AI’s previous research on quantum-inspired generative models. The research enables these models to learn from data on continuous variables, which include images, time-series data, and real-world sensor data. These variables are common in industrial problems and this research could be applied to generate new and improved solutions to these problems.
