Public Policy at Hugging Face
AI Policy at Hugging Face is a multidisciplinary and cross-organizational workstream. Instead of being part of a vertical communications or global affairs organization, our policy work is rooted in the expertise of our many researchers and developers, from Ethics and Society Regulars and legal team to machine learning engineers working on healthcare, art, and evaluations.
What we work on is informed by our Hugging Face community needs and experiences on the Hub. We champion responsible openness, investing heavily in ethics-forward research, transparency mechanisms, platform safeguards, and translate our lessons to policy.
So what have we shared with policymakers?
