An AI company co-owner says their team has publicly signed the Open Weights letter, which argues that open-weight models are a key part of U.S. AI leadership.
- The letter says AI leadership should be judged not by one frontier model, but by whether the U.S. builds a broad open ecosystem.
- It frames open weights as enabling more access, competition, application layers, and local control over AI systems.
- The document positions open-weight models as a foundation for startups, universities, public institutions, and enterprises.
