The Open Source Initiative has released the Open Source AI Definition 1.0, giving the community a concrete baseline for what counts as open in AI projects. The Open Source AI Definition resolves years of confusion around model weights, training data, and reproducibility claims, and it aligns them with established open source principles. Open Source AI […]
On October 20, researchers detailed a new LAMMPS PyTorch integration that links machine learning interatomic potentials to large-scale molecular dynamics on GPUs. The ML-IAP-Kokkos interface, developed with NVIDIA, Los Alamos, and Sandia scientists, promises faster simulations and simpler model deployment in the open LAMMPS ecosystem. According to the team, the bridge cuts overhead and scales […]
Open source AI security moved into sharper focus after new state-linked cyberattack allegations, prompting maintainers to emphasize concrete defenses. The debate intensified as China’s State Security Ministry accused the NSA of targeting its National Time Service Center, raising fresh concerns about supply-chain risks and infrastructure dependencies. Although the claim remains unverified, the conversation is already […]
