So gives Nvidia a solid position in AI distribution, evaluation and deployment.
Nvidia anyway, massively benefits for more open source adoption, and that strategy was already visible in the Nemotron Coalition, which Nvidia launched with Mistral AI, Perplexity, Thinking Machines Lab and other open-model builders.
NVIDIA also is the current largest contributor of open models and data to HuggingFace
The filing says about $11.9B goes to stockholders and up to $1B to employee retention equity, with closing expected in the first half of 2027 after regulatory approvals.
Exciting day for NVIDIA and @huggingface. Open models strengthen safety and cybersecurity, accelerate innovation and diffusion, and enable sovereignty. They allow every developer, startup, university, industry and country to build with, customize and benefit from AI. Thank you @ClementDelangue for coming to me. NVIDIA is going to be a great home for Hugging Face, its community and the future of open models. 🤗 https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/nvidia-to-acquire-hugging-face/在 X 查看被引用的帖子
