Notes
Journal du Net (17 March 2025) describes I-Accueil, a chatbot for gendarmes on reception duty in a brigade, who are asked by members of the public about almost any subject. It is described as currently based on the LLaMA 3 70B model with a retrieval-augmented (RAG) system that indexes legal codes and professional documentation, and as tagging the origin of each answer so that it can be checked. The article says it is "en expérimentation dans un département" and that national roll-out awaits the acquisition of more computing power; it names no department, provider or dates. The trial status is as of the article's date.
