About Xent.Tech

We are a team of researchers and engineers interested in using LLMs to go beyond the current chatbot paradigm, in particular to reveal interesting patterns in data.

Our History and Future

Conception

Summer 2024

Clément starts thinking more seriously about the idea of generating synthetic training data for LLMs using the knowledge that they already have.

Initial Research

Fall 2024

Clément and Andrew begin initial research and development around synthetic data generation.

Xent Game Development

Winter 2024

Clément and Andrew develop the XentGame around a computationally intractable but conceptually interesting synthetic data generation possibility with the goal of understanding better what good or optimal solutions for these sorts of problems even look like.

XeGa Language Development

Spring 2025

Clément and Andrew develop the XeGa language, a programming language for xent-based games. The XeGa language is designed to cover the space of all useful games that LLMs can play to benchmark and improve their performance.

Paper Release

June 2025

Our first paper is released!

Next

Summer 2025

Development of the XeGa benchmark and language continues. A collection of XeGa game definitions along with a system for the evaluation of LLMs on these games is created with an planned open source release soon.
