Empowering Data Owners: Train AI Without Sharing Your Data — Introducing FlexOlmo
- Data owners are increasingly seeking ways to protect their data from AI companies due to concerns around consent and compensation.
- The Allen Institute for AI (Ai2) has introduced FlexOlmo, an architecture that allows models to be trained on private datasets without sharing raw data.
- FlexOlmo lets data owners train separate models on their own data, which are later merged into a shared model using the mixture of experts (MoE) approach.
- While FlexOlmo may be complex for some model developers, it offers a new collaborative AI development paradigm that allows data owners to participate on their own terms.
