Odaily Odaily reports that NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang has published his first post on X, sharing an open letter titled "Open Weight and American AI Leadership," jointly signed by more than 20 technology companies and institutions, including NVIDIA.

The open letter argues that open-weight models can expand economic access to AI, enhance market competition, and grant users more control. Signatories include Meta, Microsoft, Andreessen Horowitz, Hugging Face, IBM, Mistral AI, Palantir, Perplexity, Mozilla, Y Combinator, among others.

The letter states that while open-weight models carry risks, they should not be restricted through bans. Instead, openness should be leveraged to advance AI safety and cybersecurity capabilities. Huang noted: "The world needs cutting-edge closed-source models, and it also needs cutting-edge open models."
