# compar:IA [compar:IA](https://comparia.beta.gouv.fr/) is a chatbot arena developed within the French Ministry of Culture and Interministerial Directorate of Digital Affairs with a dual mission: - To raise awareness about the diversity of models, cultural and linguistic biases, and the environmental impact of conversational AIs. - To create and publish datasets of questions and user preferences useful for observing usage and improving French-language conversational AIs. The Compar:IA tool is developed as part of the State startup compar:IA (incubated by the [Atelier numérique](https://www.culture.gouv.fr/Thematiques/innovation-numerique/Aides-a-l-innovation-et-a-la-transformation-numerique/L-Atelier-numerique#:~:text=L'Atelier%20num%C3%A9rique%20est%20l,engager%20personnellement%20pour%20le%20r%C3%A9soudre.) and [AllIAnce](https://alliance.numerique.gouv.fr/)) integrated into the [beta.gouv.fr](https://beta.gouv.fr) program of the [Interministerial Digital Directorate (DINUM)](https://www.numerique.gouv.fr/dinum/), which helps public administrations build useful, simple, and user-friendly digital services. **Links:** - [✨ Try compar:IA](https://comparia.beta.gouv.fr/) - [📧 Contact us](mailto:contact@comparia.beta.gouv.fr) - [💻 Code repository](https://github.com/betagouv/ComparIA) #### Datasets The data collected through compar:IA is published in three datasets: ##### 💬 comparIA-conversations Dataset containing all the questions asked and answers received on the compar:IA platform. **379k+ conversations** ##### 👍 comparIA-votes Dataset grouping user preferences expressed after a full conversation.
