Base Labs launches open-weight AI safety partnership with Hugging Face and Goodfire

Baseten has launched a new safety infrastructure standard through its Base Labs research arm, partnering with Hugging Face and Goodfire AI to enhance safety evaluation and monitoring for open-weight models. The initiative addresses concerns over the safety of open-weight models, particularly in light of the growing number of abliterated models hosted by Hugging Face. The partnership aims to create a transparent standard for training and deploying open models.
