HF is more of a platform for publishing this sort of thing, as well as the neural networks themselves and a specialized cloud service to train and deploy them, I think. They are not primarily a tool vendor, and they were around well before the LLM hype cycle.

It’s also the place where you go to to download models to use by yourself instead of sending all your data to the most unscrupulous people possible, so at least they’ve got that going for them.
