The big US firm Nvidia plans a buy. It wants to take over the firm Hugging Face. Hugging Face is a platform for KI models. There developers share their programs for free. Nvidia wants to pay about 12 point 9 billion dollars for it.
This is very much money. It is one of the biggest buys for Nvidia. The firm wants to keep its power. Other firms like OpenAI build own computer chips. Nvidia wants to depend less on these firms.
