In this presentation I will explain what Open Source means in the software development context, and how Red Hat turns Open Source projects into enterprise-ready software. Using the example of our well known container platform, I explain how hundreds of projects are hardened and integrated so that end users receive a reliable and stable solution. In the main part of the presentation, I explain how Red Hat is now doing the same in the world of AI — and why this helps to seize the opportunities of AI while remaining sovereign in a world marked by global uncertainties.
