Artificial intelligence
Appearance
Artificial intelligence has been used in a number of areas of the Wikimedia movement, from translation to detecting the quality of edits. In 2022, the explosion of interest in ChatGPT led to a deeper investigation into the use of machine learning and large language models (LLM) in the creation of Wikimedia content.
Movement initiatives
[edit]- Lift Wing, the Wikimedia Foundation's machine learning model serving infrastructure, implemented as part of a Machine Learning Modernization effort around 2023
- mw:Machine_Learning Homepage of Wikimedia Foundation's Machine Learning Team (includes public updates about ongoing ML infrastructure work)
- Machine learning models: Directory of model cards for model hosted on WMF servers
- ORES: older machine learning service by the Wikimedia Foundation (launched around 2015), being deprecated in favor of Lift Wing
- Future Audiences is an initiative at the Wikimedia Foundation focused on small experiments to guide future investments. One of its two key areas in the 2023/24 fiscal year was experiments with conversational or generative AI. They host monthly video calls open to the movement and anyone who wants to participate.

- AI-related wishlist proposals; Code issues with tag artificial-intelligence on Phabricator
Communication venues
[edit]- Wikimedia AI group on Telegram
- ML, AI and GenAI for Wikimedia Projects Facebook group
- AI mailing list (not very active as of 2024)
- Connect/AI Community (2018 proposal)
- WikiProject on German Wikipedia „KI and Wikipedia“ (KI = AI in German)
