Hugging Face's Clem Delangue on Open Source AI and the LLM Bubble | MTS Live
Clem Delangue, CEO of Hugging Face, discusses the vital role of open‑source AI in fostering innovation and competition, contrasting the U.S.'s recent shift toward closed‑source LLM APIs with China's surge in open‑source contributions.
