Abstract

Given its increasing importance in our daily lives,
Artificial Intelligence has become a prominent subject that needs
extensive investigation and understanding. This study presents an
analysis of the open-source community in the field of Artificial
Intelligence (AI). Various questions arise anytime AI is intro-
duced. open-source AI introduces additional concerns. Should
artificial intelligence (AI) be universally accessible, or should it
be restricted to private use? Is it worthwhile to offer basic models
to the broad user population? We chose the most important data
from the primary website in the field, Hugging Face. We have
developed a tool that allows for straightforward monitoring of the
progress of various open-source AI models using data obtained
from their leader board. The platform offers accessible and
valuable information about various AI models, including their
architectures and the activities of authors. Through performing
a quick review with our tool, it becomes evident that the open-
source community is becoming large and has an undeniable
impact on the AI community.
