Michael Dell backs an open-weight AI letter signed by Meta, Microsoft, NVIDIA and others
HazyResearch · x · 2026-07-25
Michael Dell says America’s tech leadership has always come from ecosystems where the best ideas compete, and argues AI should follow the same path.
The open-weight letter says:
- open-weight models widen access and speed innovation
- organizations need control over their own AI stack and data
- openness can improve safety by enabling broader testing, red-teaming, and vulnerability discovery
- policymakers should expand compute access, shared datasets, tools, and evaluation frameworks rather than over-restrict open models
The image shows a wide set of signatories, including Dell, Hugging Face, Meta, Microsoft, Mistral, NVIDIA, Mozilla, Perplexity, Replit, ServiceNow, and Y Combinator.
