This requires building a cutting-edge ecosystem where both closed-source and open-source models can thrive.

Microsoft Chairman and CEO Satya Nadella: Any pursuit of superintelligence must be based on a core principle: if the AI we create cannot help humanity and cannot be controlled by humans, then it is not worth continuing to develop.
