Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is calling for fewer barriers to open-source AI as the company unveils a new model designed to run on personal computers.
Meta Chief Executive Mark Zuckerberg called Monday for lower barriers for open source AI, as his company introduced a new model that can run on a personal computer.
The launch comes amid debate in the United States on whether access to the technology should be more restricted, and on local pushback against the buildout of data centres that power it.
This was accompanied by a long essay on the Meta website outlining Zuckerberg's vision for artificial intelligence in which he stressed the need to remain competitive against countries like China, among other issues.
Competitors OpenAI and Anthropic largely focus on closed AI models.
