“Bringing true open source innovation to AI model development and harnessing the power of a broad
community will change how enterprises think about their plans for AI adoption and scale. IBM has been a

strong supporter of open source, backing influential communities like Linux, Apache, and Eclipse, and our
collaboration with Red Hat represents a step forward in our open approach to building safe, responsible, and
effective AI. RHEL AI and InstructLab, combined with IBM’s open source Granite family of models, will deliver

new value and choice for clients who are looking to build fit for purpose models that address their use cases
with their own data while minimizing cost across a diverse hybrid cloud environment.”

Hillery Hunter, CTO and general manager of innovation, IBM Infrastructure

“Many enterprises are looking to infuse AI into their mission-critical applications. The availability of RHEL AI
and OpenShift AI on IBM Cloud will help transform how the community and companies build and leverage

generative AI. We are enabling open collaboration, simplifying model customization and providing enterprise-
quality supported models and tools for building AI into every application.”

Justin Hotard, executive vice president and general manager, Data Center & AI Group, Intel
“For AI adoption to scale, it needs to be fully open source, where community members contribute and create

new applications and use cases. By incorporating the open source Granite models and the InstructLab
project, RHEL AI is poised to bring a significant change in how we interact with, tune and ultimately use AI

models in production.”

Kirk Skaugen, president, Lenovo ISG
“Customers deploying AI-driven applications need to be able to test and experiment with potential models on
a trusted and familiar but still innovative platform. Lenovo believes the future of AI is hybrid, and we see

RHEL AI as a critical pathway for widespread hybrid AI innovation, and through Red Hat OpenShift AI,
production scalability. We’re pleased to work with Red Hat in driving this hybrid AI innovation forward through

joint testing on our ThinkSystem 8-GPU servers, providing a trusted hardware foundation for powering open
source AI.”

Justin Boitano, vice president, Enterprise Products, NVIDIA

“Red Hat and NVIDIA have a long history of close collaboration, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI
demonstrates our shared focus on bringing full-stack computing and software to the developers and
researchers building the next wave of AI technology and applications.”
