# Public Policy at Hugging Face |

<!-- {blog_metadata} --> |

|
|
|
AI Policy at Hugging Face is a multidisciplinary and cross-organizational workstream. Instead of being part of a vertical communications or global affairs organization, our policy work is rooted in the expertise of our many researchers and developers, from [Ethics and Society Regulars](https://huggingface.co/blog/ethics-soc-1) and legal team to machine learning engineers working on healthcare, art, and evaluations. |
|
|
|
What we work on is informed by our Hugging Face community needs and experiences on the Hub. We champion [responsible openness](https://huggingface.co/blog/ethics-soc-3), investing heavily in [ethics-forward research](https://huggingface.co/spaces/society-ethics/about), [transparency mechanisms](https://huggingface.co/blog/model-cards), [platform safeguards](https://huggingface.co/content-guidelines), and translate our lessons to policy. |

|
|
So what have we shared with policymakers? |
