Hugging Face and FriendliAI integrate FriendliAI Endpoints for model deployment

AI Impact Summary

Hugging Face has partnered with FriendliAI to streamline model deployment on the Hub by integrating FriendliAI Endpoints as a direct deployment option. This allows developers to leverage FriendliAI’s high-performance inference infrastructure, specifically NVIDIA H100 GPUs, for generative AI models without managing complex infrastructure. This integration simplifies the deployment process and reduces operational costs, particularly for scaling generative AI applications.
