🚀 The open source community is unstoppable: 4M total downloads for DeepSeek models on Hugging Face, with 3.2M coming from the +600 models created by the community.

That's 30% more than yesterday!

Yes, DeepSeek R1's release is impressive. But the real story is what happened in just 7 days after:

- Original release: 8 models, 540K downloads. Just the beginning...

- The community turned those open-weight models into +550 NEW models on Hugging Face. Total downloads? 2.5M—nearly 5X the originals.

The reason? DeepSeek models are open-weight, letting anyone build on top of them. Interesting to note that the community focused on quantized versions for better efficiency & accessibility. They want models that use less memory, run faster, and are more energy-efficient.

When you empower builders, innovation explodes. For everyone. 🚀

The most popular community model? @bartowski 's DeepSeek-R1-Distill-Qwen-32B-GGUF version — 1M downloads alone.

Reminder: Don’t. Use. ChatGPT. As. A. Calculator. Seriously. 🤖

Loved listening to @sasha on Hard Fork—it really made me think.

A few takeaways that hit home:
- Individual culpability only gets you so far. The real priority: demanding accountability and transparency from companies.
- Evaluate if generative AI is the right tool for certain tasks (like search) before using it.

Curious about the full conversation? https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/17/podcasts/hardfork-tiktok-rednote-environment.html. Give it a listen—it’s worth it! 🌍

AI agents are coming. But who's in control?

@meg , one of the best researchers in AI ethics, makes a critical point about autonomy: fully autonomous systems carry unknowable risks because they operate on computer logic rather than human logic.

The solution? Build systems that support & assist rather than override human decisions.

I highly recommend reading the blog post written by Meg, @evijit @sasha and @giadap . They define different levels of agent autonomy & provide a values-based analysis of risks, benefits, and uses of AI agents to help you make better decisions.

🔥 The AI Agent hype is real! This blog post deep dives into everything you need to know before deploying them: from key definitions to practical recommendations. A must-read for anyone building the future of autonomous systems.

📊 Key insight: A clear table breaking down the 5 levels of AI agents - from simple processors to fully autonomous systems. Essential framework for understanding where your agent stands on the autonomy spectrum

⚖️ Deep analysis of 15 core values reveals critical trade-offs: accuracy, privacy, safety, equity & more. The same features that make agents powerful can make them risky. Understanding these trade-offs is crucial for responsible deployment

🎯 6 key recommendations for the road ahead:
- Create rigorous evaluation protocols
- Study societal effects
- Understand ripple effects
- Improve transparency
- Open source can make a positive difference
- Monitor base model evolution

💫...And we're live!💫 Seasonal newsletter from ethicsy folks at Hugging Face, exploring the ethics of "AI Agents"
https://huggingface.co/blog/ethics-soc-7
Our analyses found:
- There's a spectrum of "agent"-ness
- *Safety* is a key issue, leading to many other value-based concerns
Read for details & what to do next!

🤝 Want to share your AI models while protecting your work? Licenses are key!

Fascinating to see that nearly 60% of models on the Hub use Apache & MIT licenses.

Did a fun experiment: What are the main themes emerging from the 100+ Nieman Journalism Lab predictions for 2025?

I used natural language processing to cluster and map them — really helps spot patterns that weren't obvious when reading predictions one by one. So what will shape journalism next year? A lot of AI and US politics (surprise!), but there's also this horizontal axis that spans from industry strategies to deep reflections on how to talk to the public.

Click any dot to explore the original prediction. What themes surprise/interest you the most?
