AI Policy @🤗: Response to the White House AI Action Plan RFI
Hugging Face Blog
Hugging Face submitted recommendations to the White House AI office arguing that open-source AI systems should be prioritized for better performance, efficiency, and security compared to closed commercial alternatives. The company cited examples including its OlympicCoder model with 7 billion parameters outperforming Claude 3.7 on coding tasks, and AI2's open OLMo 2 matching o1-mini performance. The recommendations call for increased investment in public research infrastructure, smaller customizable models, and transparent AI systems to enable broader adoption and innovation across organizations of all sizes.
