Arcee AI + mergekit: our commitment to open source
Blog post from Arcee AI
Arcee's recent merger with the open-source repository, mergekit, founded by former NASA and Apple engineer Charles Goddard, highlights a commitment to advancing research in model merging, Large Language Models (LLMs), and Small Language Models (SLMs) while maintaining open-source accessibility. Goddard's initial interest in model merging was sparked by innovative techniques described in academic literature, but the lack of readily available code led him to create mergekit, which gained popularity on GitHub. Now part of Arcee as a Senior Research Engineer, Goddard emphasizes the importance of open-source tools for democratizing access to AI research and fostering community-driven experimentation, which he believes can produce more innovative results than closed, corporate environments. This collaboration aims to push the boundaries of human knowledge in AI, encouraging widespread participation and exploration in the field.
