• “Hugging Face has announced the close of a $15 million series A funding round led by Lux Capital
• Hugging Face CEO Clément Delangue said tech companies can’t build open source NLP on their own because research and engineering teams appear to be completely disconnected. Hugging Face and the 200 contributors to its open source project instead focus on providing state-of-the-art performance.”
