GC.OS is the German Center for Open Source AI and empowers organizations and individuals to harness the power of open source artificial intelligence through democratic governance and community-driven innovation.
AI is increasingly controlled by a few tech corporations, creating a power imbalance that threatens democratic values and equal access to transformative technology.
We envision a world where AI is democratic, transparent, and accessible to all. A future where decisions about AI development are made collectively, not by a select group.
GC.OS bridges this gap by providing the legal, organizational, and financial framework that Open Source AI projects need to thrive. We enable developers, organizations, and individuals to participate in shaping the future of AI.
We support Open Source AI projects through fellowships, governance structures, and legal frameworks. We offer mentoring, education, and consulting to empower individuals and organizations to leverage Open Source AI solutions.
A democratic AI landscape where technology serves society, not corporate interests. A world where AI development is transparent, accountable, and accessible to all.
