Nathan Lambert Suggests Nvidia Acquire Hugging Face

Nathan Lambert, post-training lead at the Allen Institute for AI, posted on X that Nvidia should acquire Hugging Face. He argued the deal would cheaply deepen CUDA integrations with the open-source ecosystem, at a cost comparable to training leading open models. Lambert linked the idea to Nvidia's growing openness in 2025. The single post presents the proposal as strategic advice rather than a confirmed plan or transaction.
