Profile note
The compute engine behind most of the open German-language LLM work. Its '42' supercomputer trained LeoLM (with LAION), hosted Occiglot's data pipeline, and supported Llama3-German-8B. A state-funded university consortium rather than a lab with its own model line — recorded because without it the German open-model scene would not exist.
