Interconnects launches Artifacts Hub and Adoption Dashboard to track open model ecosystem adoption

“We're sharing them freely to help the open ecosystem find its strengths and grow.”— Nathan Lambert

Nathan Lambert's Interconnects newsletter is launching two free data tools: the Artifacts Hub, which curates and tracks 792 open models with adoption metrics built on Hugging Face and OpenRouter data, and an Adoption Dashboard showing model downloads and derivatives by geography and organization. The tools extend Interconnects' existing open-model coverage and surface data like the US-China gap in open model adoption. While useful for ecosystem observers, this is an infrastructure/tooling announcement rather than a major research or strategic signal.
