Hugging Face launches an Open Model Series for open-source AI beginners
leslysandra · x · 2026-08-04
Harper Carroll and mervenoyann launched an Open Model Series to teach people why open models matter and how to get started with them.
- The series focuses on what open-source and open-weight models are, how they work, and how to run them locally.
- Harper describes Hugging Face as the open-model hub for weights, datasets, evals, demo apps, and the libraries used to train and run models.
- She also notes that the video itself was edited entirely with Claude, and offers to explain that workflow in a future tutorial.
