NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang used his first post on X to share an open letter titled "Open Weights and American AI Leadership," which was signed by NVIDIA and more than 20 technology companies and institutions. The letter argues that open-weight models can broaden access to the AI economy, increase market competition, and give users more control. Signatories named in the report include Meta, Microsoft, Andreessen Horowitz, Hugging Face, IBM, Mistral AI, Palantir, Perplexity, Mozilla, and Y Combinator. The letter also says open-weight models carry risks, but those risks should not be addressed by banning development. Instead, it argues that openness should be used to improve AI safety and cybersecurity capabilities. Huang said the world needs both frontier closed-source models and frontier open models.
