Zuckerberg donated PyTorch to the Linux Foundation
Meta states.
The driving force behind PyTorch's success is the vibrant and continued growth of the open source community.
Establishing the foundation will ensure that decisions are made by community members in a transparent and open manner for many years to come.
Why the PyTorch Foundation?
At its core are two words: neutrality.
This was emphasized in announcements from all parties.
According to Meta, the PyTorch Foundation will adhere to four principles.
Remain open
Maintain neutrality
Maintain fairness
Build a strong technical profile
Its priority, in turn, is to ensure independence between PyTorch commercialization and technical governance.
The Linux Foundation further explains the importance of PyTorch's "neutrality".
Originally incubated by Meta's AI team, PyTorch has grown into a large community of contributors and users.
In the AI / ML space, PyTorch is like a Swiss Army knife - a lot of the technology in the AI / ML community is built on PyTorch.
