The Mojo language (by Modular, now Qualcomm) is now open-source
Modular's Mojo language is now open-source under Apache 2.0, positioning it as a unified software platform for heterogeneous AI hardware (GPUs, TPUs, Trainium, and custom accelerators), with production-ready Modular Cloud services already serving billions of tokens per minute for enterprise customers. This strategic move reduces vendor lock-in, democratizes AI infrastructure optimization, and significantly lowers the engineering effort required for hardware platform support—enabling IT organizations to achieve better performance and cost efficiency across diverse compute architectures. For CIOs, this represents both an opportunity to reduce proprietary dependencies and a competitive pressure to evaluate open-source AI stacks versus proprietary alternatives in their infrastructure planning.
