We believe open source AI is the path forward, and we’re thrilled that developers around the world are already using open source models like Llama to shape the future.
This year, we’ve held a series of events to build an open source community and support Llama developers through mentorship, funding and a broad network. These developers have launched innovative projects that span science, education, healthcare, entrepreneurship and more. Their projects exhibit the unique advantages of open source AI and demonstrate how transparent and accessible source code allows for collaboration, ingenuity and flexibility – the exact qualities needed for safe and stable development in AI.
Here’s a selection of stories about how these developers are using open source AI to solve pressing global issues.
