The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) has announced a OneGov initiative with Meta that supports government-wide use of Llama, its open source AI models, making them more accessible to all federal departments and agencies.
“In alignment with President Trump’s AI Action Plan, GSA is dedicated to integrating AI into government operations,” said Federal Acquisition Service Commissioner Josh Gruenbaum.
Through these OneGov initiatives, GSA is driving an unprecedented acceleration of AI adoption across the federal government.”As open source models, Llama models offer federal agencies the ability to retain full control over data processing and storage.
This OneGov arrangement is unique given Meta makes its Llama models freely available.
Open models like Llama give agencies the flexibility to build mission-specific solutions, reduce reliance on closed providers, and foster transparency and reproducibility in AI research.
