AMD announced it has joined Microsoft and others in signing an open letter supporting open-weight AI models. The company emphasized that a robust AI ecosystem relies on open standards, interoperability, and choice across software, systems, and hardware.
Commenting on the news, a user pointed out the irony that Anthropic, a company named after the Greek word for 'humanity,' refuses to share its model weights or support open-source AI.
