## Papers

The most cited first (OpenAlex and our library).

1. **[Jais and Jais-chat: Arabic-Centric Foundation and Instruction-Tuned Open Generative Large Language Models](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/sengupta-2023-jais-jais-chat-arabic-centric/)** *(2023 · 218 citations)* Open large language models have mostly been built for English, so their Arabic skills and knowledge of the Arabic-speaking world are weak. Arabic text is also scarce compared with English. The authors address this with Jais, a 13B-parameter GPT-3-style decoder-only model, and Jais-chat, its instruction-tuned version.
2. **[M4: Multi-generator, Multi-domain, and Multi-lingual Black-Box Machine-Generated Text Detection](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/wang-2023-m4-multi-generator-multi-domain/)** *(2023 · 107 citations)* People can barely tell LLM output from human writing, and earlier detection resources were narrow: mostly English-only, built around one generator such as ChatGPT, or limited to a single domain like news.
3. **[Exploring the Limitations of Detecting Machine-Generated Text](https://md.research.elamur.ai/free/en/papers/doughman-2025-exploring-limitations-detecting-machine-generated/)** *(2025 · 7 citations)* Detectors of machine-generated text (MGT) often report strong accuracy, but they are usually tested on data resembling their training data.
