Hugging Face has donated its Safetensors file format to the PyTorch Foundation to enhance AI model security and performance.Summary
At the PyTorch Conference EU, Hugging Face announced the contribution of its Safetensors project to the PyTorch Foundation. Safetensors provides a secure alternative to the Pickle format for storing model weights, effectively mitigating risks associated with arbitrary code execution. By moving development under the PyTorch Foundation, which operates under the Linux Foundation, the project aims to improve security, performance, and compatibility across the open-source AI ecosystem.
