Hi r/MachineLearning ,
i’m Raffi, CTO at Mozilla. on Tuesday July 14 we publish our inaugural State of Open Source AI report, and i'll be here live answering whatever questions you throw at me!
AMA time: 1pm ET / 10am PT / 6pm BST.
the report is about what's actually happening with open source AI in production — developers, enterprises, the whole ecosystem — not the version of the story everyone already believes.
things i want to dig into with you:
- the hidden tax on "free" models — what it actually costs a business to run on closed tools they don't own
- enterprise adoption — what's real versus what's marketing, and exactly where teams get stuck
- the China effect — free, capable Chinese models are rewriting who has leverage here
- developer trust — what 950+ developers told us about which tools they actually trust, and why
- the “agentic harness” — why the real fight has moved off the model and onto the layer sitting on top of it, and what that means for open
also game to deep dive into: open vs closed, what "open source ai" should even mean in 2026, where this goes for anyone building on it.
drop questions early if you've got them. i'll start answering live at the time above.
