What are the advantages of open source AI, for @ylecun, VP & Chief AI Scientist at @Meta? “Control, cost, deployment, portability… there may also be problems with private data with regards European regulation. But above all, it’s difficult to customize a closed model. The great advantage [of open source AI] is customization.” LeCun spoke at today’s Open Source AI Day Paris event at @joinstationf, with @Thom_Wolf CSO & Co-Founder, @huggingface; @ptrkprz, CEO, @kyutai_labs & Scaleway’s CPO Adrienne Jan, who moderated. Scaleway is excited to be at Station F today as we partner with Meta, Hugging Face, and STATION F to launch a new AI accelerator program to propel European startups into the future of open-source AI. 🌟 @FringuantAI @MadeToongether & Jimini are the first 3 start-ups we’ve mentored, with many more to come! 👉 This program is dedicated to nurturing the European #AI ecosystem, offering startups access to advanced open foundation models, invaluable resources, and expert mentorship from Meta and partners. 📅 Applications are open until August 16: ow.ly/XpTW50So3ze
