Right, so I'm just supposed to trust a robot called face hugger.
Hugging face is repository and Machine learning hub. https://huggingface.co/huggingface
I dont really understand their business model.
Hosting these huge model files. Why cant facebook/goog/m$ just do that on their own?
How did these massive ai giants end up relying on huggingface for everything?
Collaboration. Industry leaders, universities, and hobbbiests can all collaborate in the same place rather then siloing to their own infrastructure
Sure, but why do meta/goog/MS need to be there? Are they opening up research to each other?
For sure they are! Meta more then the others though
