Hugging Face CEO vows to keep fighting for open source AI after Jensen Huang’s exit
Hugging Face's CEO pledged to keep fighting for open source AI after Huang's exit, raising questions about Nvidia's $12.9 billion acquisition.
Hugging Face CEO Clément Delangue briefly commented on Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang’s departure on Thursday, calling it a “really sad day.” Nvidia had announced its plan to acquire the platform for open source AI models in September for $12.9 billion, making it the second-largest acquisition in the company’s history, just behind that of chipmaker Groq’s assets for $20 billion in December 2025.
