Nvidia's acquisition of HuggingFace reportedly includes the llama.cpp project and its development team, who were hired by HuggingFace in February 2026 to continue work on llama.cpp and the ggml library. The acquisition encompasses key contributors including Georgi Gerganov, Xuan-Son Nguyen, Aleksander Grygier, Victor Mustar, Lysandre, and Julien Chaumond. This move suggests Nvidia is consolidating control over important open-source AI infrastructure.
