Nearly half of open-source AI projects never reach production

Mozilla's 2026 report on open source artificial intelligence (AI) finds that nearly half of open source AI projects never reach production deployment, with deployment, governance, and operational tooling identified as key obstacles. The report underscores that securing these deployments requires investment beyond model weights alone, including infrastructure, tooling, and governance frameworks.

Why it matters: Security and DevOps teams deploying or evaluating open source AI models need to assess whether their organization has the governance, operational tooling, and infrastructure to manage these projects through production, since the majority of projects fail to reach that stage.
