OpenAI joins NVIDIA and Microsoft in a new open-weights AI letter

OpenAI says it has signed the NVIDIA–Microsoft open-source/open-weights AI model letter announced today.
- The post is a brief reaction to a new industry statement supporting open weights.
- The attached image shows a long list of signatories, including OpenAI, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Meta, Mistral, Hugging Face, GitHub, Perplexity, Replit and others.
- Another image frames the argument as “Open Weights and American AI Leadership”, claiming that broad access to open-weight models is important for U.S. AI competitiveness and ecosystem growth.
- This is best routed to companies because it is an inter-company stance/policy signal rather than a model release or funding event.
