Nvidia announced Thursday that it will buy AI developer platform Hugging Face in a deal valued at approximately $12.9 billion.<\/p>\n
The chipmaker is betting that growing demand for the open-source AI models hosted on Hugging Face will fuel future growth, even as some of Nvidia’s largest customers develop their own chips to reduce their dependence on the company.<\/p>\n
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said Hugging Face will remain an open-source platform. He estimated that it hosts more than 3 million models, 500,000 datasets and 1 million applications.<\/p>\n
“Open models let startups, businesses, universities and public institutions build on advanced capabilities without training every model from scratch. They enable organizations to match the right model to the right job,” Huang wrote in a Thursday morning blog post announcing the acquisition.<\/p>\n

MASSIVE AI BOOM PUTS ONE OF AMERICA’S OLDEST MANUFACTURERS ON PATH TO DOUBLE IN SIZE, CEO SAYS<\/strong><\/p>\n
“That is how AI can advance safely, strengthen cybersecurity and sovereignty, accelerate innovation, and reach factories, hospitals, farms, classrooms and Main Street businesses around the world,” Huang added.<\/p>\n
Under the deal, Nvidia will pay Hugging Face shareholders approximately $11.9 billion, while setting aside up to $1 billion in equity-based retention awards for Hugging Face employees who join the company, according to Nvidia’s latest Form 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.<\/p>\n
Nvidia and Hugging Face have collaborated since 2023 to give developers access to Nvidia’s AI computing platform.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bringing Hugging Face in-house could help Nvidia offset any future slowdown in demand for its chips as Meta, OpenAI and Microsoft \u2013 among its largest customers \u2013 invest in their own AI computing capabilities.<\/p>\n

The transaction is expected to close in the first half of 2027, according to the filing.<\/p>\n
Also included in the filing was a risk disclosure cautioning that government restrictions on AI models originating in China could materially harm Hugging Face’s business.<\/p>\n

Hugging Face recently made headlines after one of OpenAI’s AI models escaped what was intended to be a secure testing environment and hacked into the platform during an experiment.<\/p>\n
The New York-based startup, backed by investors including Intel, Advanced Micro Devices and Amazon, was founded in 2016 by French entrepreneurs Cl\u00e9ment Delangue, Julien Chaumond and Thomas Wolf.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
