  1. Ensuring Open Source AI thrives under the EU’s new AI rules
    In 2024, the European Union approved the Artificial Intelligence Act, the world's first legal framework for AI. Part of the law mandated the creation of a Code of Practice for General Purpose AI for AI developers. The OSI applied to take part in the drafting of these rules, but when the first draft arrived, we discovered issues that would make it impossible for Open Source AI projects to comply. Here’s how we fixed them.
  2. Announcing the new directors of OSI board
    The Open Source Initiative (OSI) board of directors validated the results of the polls, confirmed Carlo Piana as director and welcomed Ruth Suele, recommended by Affiliates, and McCoy Smith recommended by Individual supporters, as new directors.
  3. OSI and Apereo Foundation Respond to White House on AI Action Plan
    The OSI submitted public comments with the Apereo Foundation in response to the White House Office of Science & Technology Policy’s (OSTP) request for information (RFI) on an AI Action Plan. Our comment outlines the benefits of Open Source and aims to position the organization and the broader Open Source community as a resource for policymakers.
  4. Your support, our focus: The OSI’s 2025 roadmap to a stronger Open Source ecosystem
    The Open Source Initiative (OSI) has released its strategic roadmap for 2025, outlining critical initiatives designed to reinforce its role as a central authority in the Open Source ecosystem.
  5. Overcoming barriers to Open Source procurement in the European Union
    The EU has just started a review of European public procurement rules, and have asked for input on potential changes to the rules. The OSI has responded advocating for changes to dismantle these barriers and ensure Open Source solutions are fairly considered.
