Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang posted on X a company letter arguing open-weight AI models strengthen U.S. competitiveness, safety, cybersecurity, innovation and national sovereignty while complementing closed frontier systems. The letter, also signed by Microsoft, Palantir, ServiceNow, Box and others, warns that overregulation could restrict such models and concentrate gains. It states open models spur competition, lower costs and distribute benefits across the economy. AI researchers and investors reacted positively, calling the stance obvious and important for shaping AI's future. The letter positions open models as key to both security and broad economic impact.
For my first post, I’m sharing a letter @NVIDIA signed on why open models matter. AI will transform every industry, power every company, and be built by every country. Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty. The world needs both frontier closed models and frontier open models. https://images.nvidia.com/pdf/Open-Weights-and-American-AI-Leadership.pdf

65 postsNVIDIA, Palantir, Replit, Microsoft, Crowdstrike, Dell and others send a strong message to congress to keep open access to open weights models. "Our AI leadership will be judged not by one frontier AI model, but whether the United States builds a strong, open ecosystem that diffuses into every sector." "Open weights also strengthen competition and competition is what keeps the gains of AI broadly shared rather than concentrated in a few hands." "Openness may be one of the most important paths to AI safety and security."
Open models are the competitive edge. If the U.S. doesn’t lead in open, it won’t lead at all.

Open-weight models are essential to a healthy AI ecosystem. Together with others across our industry, we are outlining a path for open-weight models to strengthen American competitiveness and expand economic opportunity, while protecting national security. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/corporate-responsibility/topics/open-weight/

America’s software leadership was built on openness. We have the same opportunity in AI. If we want a competitive, secure AI ecosystem whose benefits extend far beyond a handful of companies, we need to preserve access to open-weight models.
Important.
