Jensen Huang's First X Post Defends Open Access to AI Models
Jensen Huang's first-ever post on X is in defense of open access to AI models
Jensen Huang made his debut on X by joining forces with Google, OpenAI, and Meta to champion open access for AI models. This unexpected alliance highlights a shared industry belief that keeping AI technologies accessible is crucial for fostering innovation and preventing the technology from becoming too concentrated in the hands of a few.
The future of AI depends on keeping models open and accessible to everyone, not just a select few.

How does the advertisement process work exactly? $FAMOUSPERSON joins platform and makes their first post. Were they a nobody, it would be screaming into the void.
Does the celebrity contact news outlets, “Hey guys, I joined Twitter, I will make my first post soon.”
Equally amusing because Huang could call any media organization on the planet and have a full interview that day.

This feels like Nvidia's strategy doesn't really care about the few companies they invested to pushing frontier AI, but about scaling up the amount of GPUs/datacenters needed; open models forcing more GPU purchases would drive that faster than 2 frontier labs ever could. It's likely also attractive to anyone running a GPU rental business like AWS, Azure etc. who can offer more models.
