Zhipu Chairman, Liu Debing: Fully support open source, we have open sourced more than 40 AI models.

At the 2025 Artificial Intelligence + Conference held today, Liu Debing, Chairman of Zhipu, pointed out, "Zhipu has its own persistence towards open source, likes open source and sharing. From a practical strategic perspective, open source is beneficial to the artificial intelligence industry. AI needs talents from various industries to participate, and basic models also need many people to research. Let's play together." "We fully support open source, and Zhipu has opened more than 40 models." Liu Debing said. Of course, he also pointed out that Zhipu is considering how to explore commercial benefits on the basis of open source, and provide AI calls through cloud services. In his view, when AI can empower various industries in the future, the market size may reach trillions, which cannot be completely consumed by open source. The company hopes that in the open source environment, it can also promote the commercialization and healthy development of the company.
