What is Hugging Face?

- [Instructor] Now if you're someone who's somewhat been able to keep up with the recent AI advancements, I'm sure you've heard of Hugging Face, but what actually is it? So Hugging Face is a leading platform in the world of machine learning and artificial intelligence. It's especially known for having a massive community and ecosystem that's revolutionizing the way that we work with open-source AI models. At its core, Hugging Face provides a massive suit of different open-source libraries and tools that make it easier for developers and researchers to build, train, and deploy state-of-the-art machine learning models. While they're known for their work in natural language processing and machine learning, the scope extends to various AI domains, including computer vision, as well as audio processing. One of the standup features of Hugging Face is the model hub, which we'll dive into in a few videos. This is a large repository of machine learning models. The transformers library provides…
