With AI already transforming how we use computers and the Web, Mozilla believes it's crucial that open source lead the charge. We cannot afford another Internet Explorer situation, where one or a handful of powerful corporations seize control of fundamental technology. Open source AI can and must offer a viable, competitive alternative to closed source commercial offerings.

To help this happen, Mozilla's Builders program sponsors and co-develops projects that advance the state of the art in open source AI. This session will showcase these projects (including Llamafile, sqlite-vec, Web Applets, LocalScore, and others), outline Mozilla's vision for open source AI, and describe how we seek to collaborate with independent developers and the open source community at large.
