Freedom AI
Free humanity from the boundaries of life through AI. We build large language models, multimodal systems, agents, and medical AI that move from open research to real-world impact.
Where We Work
Freedom AI is based at the School of Data Science, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen, SRIBD, and Shenzhen Loop Area Institute. We work with students, engineers, clinicians, and industry partners to turn frontier AI into usable systems.
Research Directions
Our work focuses on open, capable, and deployable AI systems, with a strong emphasis on reasoning, medicine, multimodality, agents, and evaluation.
Large Language Models
Open-source LLM infrastructure, multilingual adaptation, reasoning, optimization, and alignment.
Medical AI
HuatuoGPT, Apollo, medical benchmarks, multimodal medical models, and clinical deployment.
Multimodal Intelligence
Vision-language, audio-language, long-context multimodal models, and large-scale evaluation.
Agents and Tools
Tool-use systems, HCI workflows, MCP applications, RAG systems, and privacy-aware agents.
Evaluation and Safety
Benchmarks and analysis for LLM capabilities, robustness, responsibility, and real-world readiness.
AI for Society
Financial AI, socio-economic simulations, education, healthcare access, and public-good applications.
Impact
Healthcare deployment
HuatuoGPT-powered intelligent triage and pre-consultation systems have been deployed in 11 public hospitals and 186 community health centers in Longgang, Shenzhen.
Open-source ecosystem
FreedomIntelligence projects serve researchers and builders through models, datasets, benchmarks, and practical toolkits.
Global access
Apollo expands multilingual medical LLMs to 50 languages, moving medical AI toward broader global access.
Award-winning research
Our work has received recognitions at SIGIR, NAACL, NLPCC, ICLR Financial AI, and NeurIPS ResponsibleFM.
