# TensorFlow: how AI models rank it, November 2026

Gane Index, November 2026 Edition. Named in 10 judge labels across 1 category by 6 of 14 models. Page: https://www.gane.ai/index/it/vendors/tensorflow

## Standing by category

| Category | Share | Rank | Negative rate | Labels |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [ML platforms](https://www.gane.ai/index/it/it-data/ml-platforms/index.md) | 3% | 10 | 10% | 10 |

## What the models said for it

- "Start with open-source frameworks (TensorFlow/PyTorch) if your team has the technical expertise" (Claude Haiku 4.5, ML platforms)
- "If you have zero budget, go with PyTorch or TensorFlow on your own hardware." (Kimi K2, ML platforms)
- "use TensorFlow / PyTorch via Anaconda environments for code-based work" (Muse Glimmer 30B, ML platforms)
- "typically scikit-learn, XGBoost, and TensorFlow or PyTorch" (Perplexity Sonar, ML platforms)

## And against it

- "Open-source frameworks like TensorFlow, PyTorch, and scikit-learn cost nothing to license... but it breaks down the moment you need organization-wide adoption or regulatory auditability." (Muse Glimmer 30B, ML platforms)
