Open Source vs. Closed Source LLMs: Which is Better for Enterprises?

Feb 4, 2025 By Raza Ahmed Khan In Astera
The market for artificial intelligence (AI) stood at $184 billion in 2024 and is expected to more than quadruple in the next six years. While these expectations are astonishing, AI experts think they’re conservative, to say the least, and the actual market value would be considerably bigger. Large language models (LLMs) like GPT 3 have ushered in the age of AI. They’re finding applications as varied as complex scientific research and writing lyrics for rap battles.

Perforce's Approach to Open-Source Communities

Oct 18, 2024 By Anjali Arora In Perforce
Perforce has been contributing and working in open source for decades now. We understand that open source is the linchpin for technology that supports businesses today. Our approach to open source is not unique to the industry at large or a company of our size (we have around 1,700 employees and 800 are on my team), but questions of our approach to open source became much more visible when we acquired Puppet – which has a really dedicated open-source community and a long history with open source.
