Mozilla, which develops Browser Firefox, launched on Wednesday a startup focused on artificial intelligence. It's called Mozilla.ai, and its purpose is to work towards creating an independent, trusted AI ecosystem open code.
"The vision for her mozilla.ai είναι να διευκολύνει την ανάπτυξη αξιόπιστων προϊόντων artificialof intelligence," says Mark Surman, executive chairman of Mozilla and member of the Mozilla.ai board, in a blog post.
Surman says he and Mozilla have met with people who want to develop AI that prioritizes transparency, accountability and user interests — unlike, he said, the approach taken by other companies technology.
"Mozilla.ai will be a space outside of big tech and academia to bring together like-minded founders, developers, scientists, product managers and makers," it says.
"We believe that this group of people, working collectively, will be able to turn the tide to create an independent, decentralized and trusted artificial intelligence ecosystem – a true counterweight to the status quo."
Η κυκλοφορία του Mozilla.ai έρχεται καθώς οι εταιρείες βιάζονται να κυκλοφορήσουν εργαλεία τεχνητής νοημοσύνης μετά την κυκλοφορία του ChatGPT τον Νοέμβριο, ενός chatbot που μπορεί να αναζητήσει γρήγορα το διαnetwork, write essays and more. On Tuesday, for example, Google opened a waiting list for its AI tool, Bard.
The initial focus for Mozilla.ai, Surman wrote, will be on tools that make productive AI services, such as OpenAI's ChatGPT, safer and more transparent, as well as recommendation systems that don't misinform people.
Mozilla made an initial investment of $30 million in Mozilla.ai. Moez Draief, former chief scientist at Huawei's Noah's Ark lab, will be the agency's CEO, and a three-person board will help lead it.
