🔴Live: @Gimpelle at #GlobalTechSummit: "If you look at LLMs, they might become like a foundational infrastructure other applications are building up on, like a downstream use of those foundational models, and I think it's important that these are as open as possible to inspire innovation and competition, because that ultimately also benefits quality."

Shocked and speechless by the news of WAR in Europe & thinking of my Ukrainian colleagues, their families and everyone affected by this barbarous act. Let's stand in solidarity❤️& be careful not to become agents of Russian #disinformation campaigns #solidarityWithUkraine
