NVIDIA-backed open-model support gets a public boost
The post quotes Jensen Huang’s letter on why open models matter and adds a supportive note from the poster.
- Huang says AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country.
- The letter argues that open models improve safety and cybersecurity, speed up innovation, and support AI sovereignty.
- It explicitly frames the future as one where both frontier closed models and frontier open models are needed.
The reply uses that quote to reinforce the idea that open source is a force against centralization.
