Committed to authenticity, factual data sourcing, & ethical data use, Latimer.ai leads in creating AI technologies that encompass a broader spectrum of human history & culture, paving the way for tech that is inclusive of all people.

John Pasmore Quotes

🚀 "We've built what we believe is a premier inclusive large language model trained with additional content on Black & Brown histories & cultures to reflect accurately & without bias."

💡 "Latimer talks about 'formerly enslaved people.’ It's a slightly different use of language, but it frames the people differently."

📚 "I think ultimately, Black & Brown people should own their own history.”
