Hugging Face is exploring sale of the business valued at around $13 billion dollars. Actually I don't think we have any other repo source. Which has the mix of model weights, datasets and Spaces.

Do you see a change in their policies once third parties invest, with a larger focus on profitability and increasing revenues. submitted by /u/shoeshineboy_99 [link] [comments]
