Timeline

  1. 2024

    Research at CORAIL

    He works as a CORAIL research intern in 2024 and receives an Ecole Polytechnique research internship award.

  2. 2024

    Fused MLPs for Intel GPUs

    In 2024, he coauthors a paper on a SYCL implementation of multilayer perceptrons optimized for Intel's Data Center GPU Max 1550. The Intel tiny-dpcpp-nn project credits him with its original SwiftNet implementation.

  3. 2025

    Learning dual bounds

    At Polytechnique Montréal and École Polytechnique, he coauthors a 2025 AAAI paper that uses self-supervised neural networks to learn valid dual bounds for constraint programming.

  4. 2025

    Mistral's first reasoning model

    In 2025, he coauthors Magistral, Mistral AI's first reasoning model, and a report on its scalable reinforcement-learning pipeline.

  5. 2025

    Audio chat and code agents

    In 2025, he coauthors Voxtral, a multimodal audio chat model, and Devstral-Small, a lightweight open-source model for code agents.

  6. 2026

    The Ministral 3 family

    In 2026, he coauthors the Ministral 3 report, which introduces parameter-efficient dense language models in 3B, 8B, and 14B sizes.

  7. 2026

    Streaming and synthetic speech

    In 2026, he coauthors Voxtral Realtime, a streaming speech-recognition model, and Voxtral TTS, a multilingual text-to-speech model.

  8. As of October 2026

    Safety and robot navigation

    He is an AI researcher coauthoring 2026 work on Shieldstral, a multimodal safety classifier, and Robostral Navigate, an 8B vision-language model for robot navigation.
