François Chollet
Creator and project lead of Keras, whose KerasHub runs open-weight models on JAX, PyTorch, or TensorFlow
- Co-founder, ARC Prize Foundation1
- Co-founder, Ndea1
François Chollet created the Keras deep learning library and has led the project since 2015. KerasHub, its pretrained-model library, provides checkpoints for open-weight language models such as Gemma, Llama, Mistral, Qwen, Phi-3, and SmolLM3 that can be used for both training and inference on the JAX, PyTorch, or TensorFlow backends. Chollet also co-founded Ndea and ARC Prize.123
