Speaker 1: Hey everyone, it's Robert and Joe here. Today we've got
Speaker 1: something a little bit different to share with you. It
Speaker 1: is a new season of the Smart Talks with IBM
Speaker 1: podcast series.
Speaker 2: Today we are witnessed to one of those rare moments
Speaker 2: in history, the rise of an innovative technology with the
Speaker 2: potential to radically transform business and society forever. The technology,
Speaker 2: of course, is artificial intelligence, and it's the central focus
Speaker 2: for this new season of Smart Talks with IBM.
Speaker 1: Join hosts from your favorite Pushkin podcasts as they talk
Speaker 1: with industry experts and leaders to explore how businesses can
Speaker 1: integrate AI into their workflows and help drive real change
Speaker 1: in this new era of AI. And of course, host
Speaker 1: Malcolm Gladwell will be there to guide you through the
Speaker 1: season and throw in his two cents as well.
Speaker 2: Look out for new episodes of Smart Talks with IBM
Speaker 2: every other week on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or
Speaker 2: wherever you get your podcasts, and learn more at IBM
Speaker 2: dot com slash smart talks.
Speaker 3: Hello, Hello, Welcome to Smart Talks with IBM, a podcast
Speaker 3: from Pushkin Industries, iHeartRadio and IBM. I'm Malcolm Gladwell. This
Speaker 3: season we're continuing our conversation with new creators visionaries who
Speaker 3: are creatively applying technology in business to drive change, but
Speaker 3: with a focus on the transformative power of artificial intelligence
Speaker 3: and what it means to leverage AI as a game
Speaker 3: changing multiplier for your business. Our guest today is Jeff Boutier,
Speaker 3: head of Product and Growth at hugging Face, the leading
Speaker 3: open source and open science artificial intelligence platform. An engineer
Speaker 3: by background, he has a self professed obsession with the
Speaker 3: business of technology. Recently, IBM and hugging Face announced the
Speaker 3: collaboration bringing together hugging faces repositories of open source AI
Speaker 3: models with IBM's Watson X platform. It's a move that
Speaker 3: gives businesses even more access to AI while staying true
Speaker 3: to IBA's long standing philosophy of supporting open source technology.
Speaker 3: With open source, businesses can build better AI models that
Speaker 3: suit their specific needs using their own proprietary data while
Speaker 3: browsing a ready catalog of pre trained models. In today's episode,
Speaker 3: you'll hear why open source is so crucial to the
Speaker 3: advancement of AI, how IBM's Watson X interacts with open
Speaker 3: source AI, and Jeff's thoughts on why this singular omnipotent
Speaker 3: AI model is a myth. Jeff spoke with Tim Harford,
Speaker 3: host of the Pushkin podcast Cautionary Tales, a longtime columnist
Speaker 3: at The Financial Times, where he writes the Undercover Economist.
Speaker 3: Tim is also a BBC broadcaster with his show More
Speaker 3: or Less. Okay, let's get to the interview.
Speaker 4: I am a Jeff Boudier and I'm a product director
Speaker 4: at Hugging Face.
Speaker 5: So I'm immediately intrigue. Hugging Face. Is this a reference
Speaker 5: to the Alien movie or something else.
Speaker 4: It is not, and it may be not obvious to
Speaker 4: a listener, but hugging Face is the name of that
Speaker 4: cute emoji, you know, the one that's smiling with his
Speaker 4: two hands extended like that to give you a big hug.
Speaker 4: That's hugging Face. So basically, we name the company after
Speaker 4: an emoji.
Speaker 5: And it is I saw your website and it is
Speaker 5: a very friendly emoji. So that's that's nice. So tell
Speaker 5: us a little bit about hugging Face and about what
Speaker 5: you do there.
Speaker 4: Of course, hugging Face is the leading open platform for
Speaker 4: AI builders and it's the place that all of the
Speaker 4: AI researchers use to share their work, their new AI
Speaker 4: models and collaborate around them. It's the place where the
Speaker 4: data scientists go and find those pre train models and
Speaker 4: access them and use them and work with them. And
Speaker 4: increasingly it's the place where developers are coming to turn
Speaker 4: all of these AI models and datasets into their own applications,
Speaker 4: their own features.
Speaker 5: So it's like the I don't know, the Facebook group
Speaker 5: or the Reddit or the Twitter for people who are
Speaker 5: interested in particularly generative language AI or all kinds of
Speaker 5: artificial intelligence.
Speaker 4: All kinds of AI really, and of course generative AI
Speaker 4: is this new wave that has caught the world by storm.
Speaker 4: But on a hiking face you can find any kind
Speaker 4: of model. The new sort of transformers models to do
Speaker 4: anything from translation or if you wanted to transcribe what
Speaker 4: I'm saying into text, then you would use a transformer model.
Speaker 4: If you wanted to then take that text and make
Speaker 4: a summary, that would be another transformer model. If you
Speaker 4: wanted to create a nice little thumbnail for this podcast
Speaker 4: by typing a sentence, that would be another type of model.
Speaker 4: So all these models you can find, there's actually three
Speaker 4: hundred thousands that are free and publicly accessible. You can
Speaker 4: find them on our website at Hikingphase dot co and
Speaker 4: use them using our open source libraries.
Speaker 5: And so this this is fascinating. So there are three
Speaker 5: hundred thousand models. Now when you say model, I'm thinking
Speaker 5: in my head, Oh, it's kind of like a computer program.
Speaker 5: There were three hundred thousand computer programs. Is that roughly
Speaker 5: right or it not?
Speaker 4: Really, it's a general idea. A model is a giant
Speaker 4: set of numbers that are working together to sift through
Speaker 4: some inputs that you're going to give it. So think
Speaker 4: of it of a big black box filled with numbers,
Speaker 4: and you give it as an input, maybe some text,
Speaker 4: maybe a prompt, so you're asking you're giving an instruction
Speaker 4: to the model, or maybe you give it an image
Speaker 4: as an input, and then it will sift through that
Speaker 4: information thanks to all of these numbers, which we call
Speaker 4: in the field parameters, and it will produce an output.
Speaker 4: So when I told you, hey, we can transcribe this
Speaker 4: conversation into text, the input would have been the conversation
Speaker 4: in an audio file, and then the output would have
Speaker 4: been the text of the transcription. If you want to
Speaker 4: create a thumbnail for this podcast episode, then the input
Speaker 4: would be what we call the prompt, which is really
Speaker 4: a text description like a Frenchman in San Francisco talking
Speaker 4: about machine learning, and the output would be completely original image.
Speaker 4: So that's how I think about what an AI model is,
Speaker 4: and I think what we're starting to realize is that
Speaker 4: this is becoming the new way of building technology in
Speaker 4: the world. It has been for the field of dealing,
Speaker 4: understanding generating text for quite some time, but now it's
Speaker 4: sort of moving across every field of technology. We have
Speaker 4: models to create images, as I say, but also to
Speaker 4: generate new proteins to make predictions on numerical data. So
Speaker 4: every kind of field of machine learning is now using
Speaker 4: this new type of models. But what's interesting is that
Speaker 4: if you're say a product manager at a tech company
Speaker 4: and you say, hey, I want to build a feature
Speaker 4: that does this. A few years ago, the approach would
Speaker 4: have been to ask software developer to write a thousand
Speaker 4: lines of code in order to build a prototype. And
Speaker 4: the new way of doing things today is to go
Speaker 4: look for an off the shelf pre train model that
Speaker 4: does a pretty good job at solving exactly that problem,
Speaker 4: so you can create a prototype of that feature fast.
Speaker 4: So it's a new approach of building tech.
Speaker 5: I'm not a programmer. But I'm aware that there was
Speaker 5: this idea of open source code and now we have
Speaker 5: open source models. So what does it mean for something
Speaker 5: to be open source?
Speaker 4: Open source AI actually means a lot of different specific things.
Speaker 4: It's the open source implementation of the model. So if
Speaker 4: you use the Hugging Phase transformers library to use a model,
Speaker 4: you're using an open source code library to use that model, just.
Speaker 5: To end up on that. The transformers, these are these
Speaker 5: kind of ways of turning a picture of a dog
Speaker 5: into a text output that says, hey, this is a
Speaker 5: picture of a dog, or this is a French text
Speaker 5: and with the transformers helping you turn it into English text,
Speaker 5: or it's doing all of these things that you've been describing.
Speaker 5: That's the transformer is the kind of the engine at
Speaker 5: the heart of.
Speaker 4: That, yes, exactly. And we call them transformers because they
Speaker 4: correspond to this new way of building machine learning models
Speaker 4: that was introduced by Google actually with a very important
Speaker 4: paper called Attention Is All You Need and that was
Speaker 4: published in twenty seventeen by researchers out of Google Deep Mind.
Speaker 5: Well that's just six years so new.
Speaker 4: It is very new, and ever since the pace of
Speaker 4: innovation of like new model architectures has really really accelerated,
Speaker 4: but it really started from this inflection point that came
Speaker 4: from this paper, and it's implement in what is now
Speaker 4: called transformer models, the transformer that has conquered every area
Speaker 4: of machine learning since.
Speaker 5: Okay, so say churned you up. So you've got this
Speaker 5: library of Transformer models and that open source and that
Speaker 5: means that means what anyone can use them for free,
Speaker 5: or that anybody can implement them for free. What does
Speaker 5: it mean?
Speaker 4: So again, there's lots that go into it, but the
Speaker 4: most important thing is for the model itself to be
Speaker 4: available so that a data scientists or an engineer can
Speaker 4: download them and use them. And also there are a
Speaker 4: lot of considerations about how you make them accessible, and
Speaker 4: a very important one is whether or not you give
Speaker 4: access to the training data, all the information that went
Speaker 4: into training that model and teaching it to do what
Speaker 4: it's trained to do.
Speaker 5: So I might have fed millions of words into a
Speaker 5: into a language transformer, or I might have fed millions
Speaker 5: of photographs into a into a picture transformer.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yes, and now it's trillions and that and the
Speaker 4: accessibility of that training data is very very important.
Speaker 5: What's the relationship between the hugging Face libraries and GitHub, which,
Speaker 5: if I understand GitHub correctly, it's this the repository of
Speaker 5: open source code, lots and lots of lines of code
Speaker 5: and routines and programs that are shared and updated and
Speaker 5: tracked and they're all available on GitHub, which sounds similar
Speaker 5: to what you're doing with hugging Face for AI. So
Speaker 5: what what what is the interaction or the relationship there?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I think you nailed it on the head there.
Speaker 4: So hugging phase is to AI where GitHub is to code. Right,
Speaker 4: there's this central platform where AI builders can go and
Speaker 4: collaborate around AI artifacts, which are models and datasets. So
Speaker 4: it's quite different than software, but we play this central
Speaker 4: role in the community to share and collaborate and access
Speaker 4: all of those artifacts for AI like it had offers
Speaker 4: for code.
Speaker 5: And that community must be incredibly important. I mean, the
Speaker 5: open sources is nothing if you don't have a community
Speaker 5: of people working on it. So how have you been
Speaker 5: able to foster and nurture that community?
Speaker 4: Well, I think it goes to the origins of the
Speaker 4: transformer model and hugging and face role into that. So
Speaker 4: when the first sort of open model came out. It
Speaker 4: was called Bird and it came out of Google. The
Speaker 4: only way you could access it was to use a
Speaker 4: tool called TensorFlow. But it happened that most of the
Speaker 4: AI community was using a different tool called PyTorch. And
Speaker 4: something that Hugging Face did is to make that new
Speaker 4: model Bert accessible to all PyTorch user and they did
Speaker 4: it in open source. It was a project called Bert's
Speaker 4: pre Trained PyTorch or Burt PyTorch pre Trained.
Speaker 5: So this is like being able to play my Zelda
Speaker 5: game on an Xbox or a PlayStation, right or am
Speaker 5: I not really understanding what's going on?
Speaker 4: No, That's exactly what it is. And the thing is
Speaker 4: everybody was using the game Boy and so it became
Speaker 4: a very popular and from there the community sort of
Speaker 4: gathered to make all of the other models that were
Speaker 4: then published by AI researchers available through that library, which
Speaker 4: was quickly renamed from bert pre Trained PyTorch into transformers
Speaker 4: to welcome like all of these different new models, and
Speaker 4: today that's open source library. Transformers is what all AI
Speaker 4: builders are using when they want to access those models,
Speaker 4: see how they work, and build upon them.
Speaker 5: What's striking about this field is that it's changing so fast,
Speaker 5: it's improving so quickly, So how do open source models
Speaker 5: keep up with that? How do they get iterated and improved?
Speaker 4: Actually, it's not so much that open source is keeping
Speaker 4: up with it. It's actually open source that is driving,
Speaker 4: that is driving this piece of change. And that's because
Speaker 4: with open source and open research data, scientists researchers can
Speaker 4: build upon each other's work, they can reproduce each other's work,
Speaker 4: they can access each other's work using our open source libraries,
Speaker 4: et cetera. So, in a sense, it's not really that
Speaker 4: open source AI is a new idea. It's rather the opposite.
Speaker 4: There's been a blip of time in which closed source
Speaker 4: AI seemed to be the dominant way, but it's really
Speaker 4: a blip. In fact, you know, none of the incredible
Speaker 4: advances that we're marvel about today would be possible without
Speaker 4: open source. We're standing upon the shoulders of fifty years
Speaker 4: of research and open source software. So I think that
Speaker 4: that's really important. If it wasn't for that, we'll probably
Speaker 4: be fifty years away from having these amazing experiences like
Speaker 4: CHTGBT or stable diffusion, et cetera. So it's really open
Speaker 4: source that is fueling this pace of change, all these
Speaker 4: new models, all these new capabilities. To give you an example,
Speaker 4: so Meta released the Lama large language model just a
Speaker 4: few months ago, and ever since there's been this Cambrian
Speaker 4: explosion of variations and improvements upon the original models, and
Speaker 4: today there are there are thousands of them that we
Speaker 4: host and track and evaluate. So yeah, open source is
Speaker 4: really the gas and the engine for that.
Speaker 3: Jeff just made it clear that it is open source,
Speaker 3: not closed, that sets the pace for AI innovation. If
Speaker 3: that's true, then forward thinking businesses shouldn't shy from leveraging
Speaker 3: open source AI to solve their own proprietary challenges. But
Speaker 3: how businesses can face serious obstacles when trying to adopt
Speaker 3: open source technologies, like complying with government regulation or making
Speaker 3: sure their customers data stays protected. In the next part
Speaker 3: of their conversation, Jeff and Tim discuss how IBM's collaboration
Speaker 3: with hugging Face empowers businesses to tap into the open
Speaker 3: source AI community and how the watsonex platform can enable
Speaker 3: them to customize those AI models to their needs.
Speaker 5: Just wants to ask about the partnership between hugging Face
Speaker 5: and an IBM, how did that come.
Speaker 4: About, Well, it came through a conversation, a conversation between
Speaker 4: our CEO, Clement Delangue and Bill Higgins IBM, who's really
Speaker 4: really close to all the amazing research work and open
Speaker 4: source work that's happening at IBM, and that conversation sort
Speaker 4: of sparked the evidence that we needed to do something together.
Speaker 4: We share a lot of values in terms of the
Speaker 4: importance of open source, which is fundamental to us, with
Speaker 4: the importance of doing things in an ethics first way
Speaker 4: to enable the community to incorporate ethical considerations in how
Speaker 4: they're building AI. And we sort of have a different
Speaker 4: audience to start with, which is all the AI builders
Speaker 4: use hiking phase today to access all the models we
Speaker 4: talked about, to use them using our open source and
Speaker 4: build with them. And IBM has this incredible history of
Speaker 4: working with enterprise companies and enabling them to make use
Speaker 4: of that technology in a way that's compliant with everything
Speaker 4: that an enterprise requires, and so being able to marry
Speaker 4: these two things together is an amazing opportunity. And now
Speaker 4: we can enable the largest corporations that have sort of
Speaker 4: complex requirements in order to deploy machine learning systems and
Speaker 4: give them an easy experience to take advantage of all
Speaker 4: the latest and greatest that AI has to offer through
Speaker 4: our platform.
Speaker 5: Let's talk about this idea of a single model or
Speaker 5: a variety of models, because what I've been hearing you say.
Speaker 5: You've been saying, oh, there are lots of models. There
Speaker 5: are hundreds of thousands of models available on hugging Face.
Speaker 5: But you've also said there's a single thing, the transformer,
Speaker 5: and they're all transformers. So if they're all basically the
Speaker 5: same thing, why can't you just build one super clever
Speaker 5: model that can do everything.
Speaker 4: That's a really interesting idea and very much a new idea.
Speaker 4: The reason we have over a million repositories three hundred
Speaker 4: thousand free inaccessible models on a hiking Face platform is
Speaker 4: that models are typically trained to do one thing, and
Speaker 4: they're typically trained to do one thing with specific types
Speaker 4: of data. And what became new and evident in the
Speaker 4: research that came out over the last couple of years
Speaker 4: is that if you train a big enough model with
Speaker 4: enough data, then those models start to have sort of
Speaker 4: general capabilities. You can ask them to do different things,
Speaker 4: you can even train them to respond to instructions. So
Speaker 4: with the same model you can say, hey, summarize this paragraph,
Speaker 4: translate this into English, start a conversation in French, and
Speaker 4: pivot to German. And so these are general sort of
Speaker 4: language capabilities. And I think when ch GBT came online
Speaker 4: and the world sort of discovered these new capabilities, there was,
Speaker 4: at least for a short period, this sort of idea,
Speaker 4: this sort of myth that the endgame of all this
Speaker 4: is maybe one or a handful of models that are
Speaker 4: so much better than anything else than exists, that they
Speaker 4: can do anything that we can ask them to do,
Speaker 4: and that's the only model that we will need. And I,
Speaker 4: for one, think it is a myth. I don't think
Speaker 4: it is practical for a variety of reasons. Say you're
Speaker 4: writing an email and you have like this great suggestion
Speaker 4: of text to sort of complete your sentence. Well, that's AI.
Speaker 4: That's a large language model, that's a transformer model that
Speaker 4: does that. So there are a ton of existing use
Speaker 4: cases like this, and these use cases are powered by
Speaker 4: specific models that have been trained to do one thing
Speaker 4: well and to do it fast. If you wanted to
Speaker 4: apply these sort of all knowing, powerful oracle type of model,
Speaker 4: you would not be able to serve millions of customers
Speaker 4: through a search engine. You will not be able to
Speaker 4: complete people's sentences because the amount of money that you
Speaker 4: would need, the number of computers that you would need
Speaker 4: to run such of of service just exceeds what is
Speaker 4: available on the planet. So one reason for which it's
Speaker 4: not a practical scenario is that it's just very expensive
Speaker 4: to run those very very large models.
Speaker 5: What I'm hearing is it's like, look, if you want
Speaker 5: to screw in a screw you need a screwdriver. You
Speaker 5: don't want an entire tool shed full of tools if
Speaker 5: the task is to screw in a screwdriver, and sure
Speaker 5: you could bring the tool shed that are all the tools.
Speaker 5: There's a screwdriver there, but it's not necessary. It's incredibly expensive,
Speaker 5: it's incredibly cumbersome, and that cost exists even though maybe
Speaker 5: is the user who's just typing in a into a
Speaker 5: prompt box. The user may not see it, but it's
Speaker 5: still very real.
Speaker 4: That's right. And then another one is performance. So taking
Speaker 4: the screwdriver example, so and by the way, like we're
Speaker 4: not quite there at this moment where we have this
Speaker 4: all knowing, powerful oracle that is still sort of a
Speaker 4: sci fi scenario. But we have screwdrivers, but we also
Speaker 4: have the leatherman, right, the multitole Swiss army knife, And
Speaker 4: that's sort of the moment that we are in today.
Speaker 4: But now, if I'm trying to open up my computer,
Speaker 4: turns out that it requires a specific kind of screw
Speaker 4: like these tiny little tork screws, and having a torque
Speaker 4: screw driver will get me much further than trying to
Speaker 4: use my leatherman, where maybe I'll get the knife blade
Speaker 4: and it will mess up the screw and maybe eventually
Speaker 4: I'll get to what I need. But my point is
Speaker 4: that if you take a very specifically trained model for
Speaker 4: a particular problem, it will work much better. It will
Speaker 4: give you better results than a very very generalistic, big
Speaker 4: model that can do a lot of things. And so
Speaker 4: for things like search engines or things things like translation,
Speaker 4: for things that are very specific, companies are much better
Speaker 4: off using smaller, more efficient models that produce better results.
Speaker 5: That's really interesting. And presumably then being able to know
Speaker 5: which model to use, or being able to know who
Speaker 5: to ask which model to use, becomes a very important capability.
Speaker 4: Yes, and that's what we're trying to make easy through
Speaker 4: our platform.
Speaker 5: So tell me about how this works with IBM's what's
Speaker 5: an X platform. How do you see Hugging faces customers
Speaker 5: benefiting from that.
Speaker 4: The end goal is to make it really easy for
Speaker 4: what's and ex customers to make use of all the
Speaker 4: great models and libraries that we talked about, all the
Speaker 4: three hundred thousand models are today on Hugging Face. And
Speaker 4: to do this we need to really collaborate deeply with
Speaker 4: with the IBM teams that build the What's and X
Speaker 4: platform so that our libraries, our open source our models
Speaker 4: are well integrated into the platform. If you're a single user,
Speaker 4: if you are a data science student and you want
Speaker 4: to use a model, is we make it super easy? Right.
Speaker 4: We have our open source library, you can download the
Speaker 4: model on your computer and run with it then. But
Speaker 4: in enterprises there is a vast complexity of infrastructure and
Speaker 4: rules around what people can do and how the data
Speaker 4: can be accessed, and all this complexity is sort of
Speaker 4: solved by the Whatson X platform.
Speaker 5: This season of the Smart Talks podcast features what we're
Speaker 5: calling new creators. Do you see yourself as being a
Speaker 5: creative person.
Speaker 4: I think it's a requirement for the job. I mean,
Speaker 4: we're in such a new and rapidly evolving industry that
Speaker 4: we have to be creative in order to invent the
Speaker 4: business models the use cases of tomorrow. My role within
Speaker 4: the company is really to create the business around all
Speaker 4: the great work of our science and open source and
Speaker 4: product team, and by and large, the business model of
Speaker 4: AI within the whole ecosystem is still something that companies
Speaker 4: are trying to figure out. So creativity is really important
Speaker 4: to really have the conversation with companies, understand what they're
Speaker 4: trying to do, and then build the right kind of solution.
Speaker 4: So that's like where creativity comes into play.
Speaker 5: And one of the things that you've you've been talking
Speaker 5: about is just this growing number of models, this growing
Speaker 5: number of capabilities, this growing number of use cases almostly
Speaker 5: exciting but also I think completely bewildering for most people
Speaker 5: who are trying to navigate their way through this maze
Speaker 5: of possibilities that is growing faster than they can even
Speaker 5: learn about it. So how are you helping people navigate
Speaker 5: and make choices in that environment and how does the
Speaker 5: partnership with IBM help with that.
Speaker 4: Well? As I said, our vision is that AI machine
Speaker 4: learning is becoming the default way of creating technology and
Speaker 4: that means like every product, app, service that you're going
Speaker 4: to be using is going to be using AI to
Speaker 4: do whatever it is better faster. And I guess there
Speaker 4: are two competing visions of the world coming from that.
Speaker 4: There is this vision of the oracle, all powerful model
Speaker 4: that can do every thing, and our vision is different.
Speaker 4: Our vision is that every single company will be able
Speaker 4: to create their own models that they own, that they
Speaker 4: can use, that they control. And that's the division that
Speaker 4: we're trying to bring to life through our open source
Speaker 4: tools that make this work easy through our platform where
Speaker 4: you can find all those pre train models are shared
Speaker 4: by the community. So we really want to empower companies
Speaker 4: to build their own stuff, not to outsource all the
Speaker 4: intelligence to a third party. And the What's on next
Speaker 4: platform from IBM gives those tools to enterprise companies. So
Speaker 4: that's you can use the open source models that hiking
Speaker 4: Face offers, then you can improve them with your own
Speaker 4: data without sharing that data to a third party, and
Speaker 4: then you could do all of this work in compliance
Speaker 4: with whatever governance requirements that you have for your company,
Speaker 4: maybe your finance services company and you have a specific
Speaker 4: set of rules, maybe your healthcare company, and you have
Speaker 4: very strong privacy requirements for patients data maybe your tech company,
Speaker 4: and you have your your customers, your users' personal information,
Speaker 4: so you need to be able to do this work
Speaker 4: respecting all of that.
Speaker 5: Jeff Breier, thank you very much.
Speaker 4: Thanks so much, Tam. It's fun.
Speaker 3: To create the AI models of the future. We're going
Speaker 3: to need open source. That means it's a place for
Speaker 3: business in the open source community to harness the game
Speaker 3: changing potential of AI innovation. Like Jeff said, businesses face
Speaker 3: unique challenges they need to solve at scale without pri
Speaker 3: upper support systems. Tapping into open source AI at enterprise
Speaker 3: level is daunting finding the right size model for the job,
Speaker 3: fine tuning its purpose, all while addressing governance acquirements around
Speaker 3: data privacy and ethics. So for businesses, IBM's collaboration with
Speaker 3: hugging Face is a market progress because it signifies that
Speaker 3: business can tap into open source AI while preserving enterprise
Speaker 3: level integrity. Businesses should embrace the open source community and
Speaker 3: the AI future, much like hugging Face and its emoji
Speaker 3: namesake suggests. I'm Malcolm Gladwell. This is a paid advertisement
