HF for Legal, an open-source community on Hugging Face

Announcing the creation of the "HF for Legal" organization on Hugging Face, an open-source community dedicated to demystifying language models for legal professionals

Whether you're a practicing attorney, a legal scholar, or a technologist interested in legal applications of AI, HF for Legal may be your hub for exploration, learning, and free innovation

On the occasion of this launch, you'll be able to find several notebooks I've been developing over the last few months for TSDAE pre-training of embedding models, the generation of indexes for semantic search adapted to the field of French law, or the addition of information retrieval tasks to the MTEB.

Join us in our mission to make AI more accessible and understandable for the legal world, ensuring that the power of language models can be harnessed effectively and ethically.

Special thanks to Clément for encouraging me to start this organization. Let's hope we can bring together all the enthusiasts who work in this field.

Let's code and share together!
