True to our roots in open-source, we intend to go about the Foundation’s work transparently, learning and iterating in the open. Working openly isn’t just for products – it’s a set of principles we want to bring to everything we do, whether it’s advocacy or grantmaking or community-building.
Both as a concept and a built reality, artificial intelligence (AI) is poised to further separate us. But it won’t if we reform the ways it’s created and deployed around the world now.
