AIBots: GovTech Singapore's platform for public officers to build RAG-powered AI chatbots
GovTech Singapore built AIBots, a platform that lets Singapore Public Officers create, customise, and deploy Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) generative AI chatbots in under 15 minutes, enhancing responses by integrating internal agency knowledge bases (including content classified up to Restricted/Sensitive Normal) alongside publicly available information. Officers have used it for talking-points and speech generation, Q&A chatbots on internal HR, travel and onboarding processes, and survey verbatim analysis. Between August 2024 and February 2025, AIBots reached 40,000 users across 115 government agencies, with 12,000 bots created and over 1 million messages sent.

Inspect the highlighted sourceThe challenge
Singapore Public Officers needed a way to bridge the gap between publicly available information and internal agency knowledge bases, for example to answer frequent internal inquiries about HR, travel and onboarding processes, or to analyze survey verbatim comments without manually reading every single one.
The solution
GovTech Singapore built AIBots, a platform where Public Officers can create, customise, and deploy Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) generative AI chatbots in under 15 minutes. Officers can upload internal documents (including content classified up to Restricted/Sensitive Normal), configure the bot's tone and guardrails, and share bots with team members. Use cases include talking-points and speech generation, Q&A chatbots on internal HR, travel and onboarding processes, and survey verbatim results analysis.

Austrian Academy of Sciences unlocks Ancient Greek with Mistral
The Austrian Academy of Sciences (OeAW), together with its Austrian Archaeological Institute, partnered with Mistral and services partner Reply to build Apollo, described as the first advanced large language model for Ancient Greek. Apollo is trained on a specialized corpus of 600 million words of historical Greek text plus tens of thousands of published inscriptions and papyri, helping researchers reconstruct damaged texts and identify thematic connections across collections. The OeAW reports Apollo turns work that once took years into hours, addressing over one million unread Greek papyri worldwide, with future phases planned for semantic search and handwritten inscription decipherment.
