“We are excited to make this model, the result of billions of dollars of research, available to the world to bring artificial intelligence into the hands of most people as possible,” said Sam Altman, CEO of Openai in a declaration and -mail. Both GPT-OS-20B and GPT-OS-20B are officially available for download for free on Hugging Face, a popular hosting platform for AI tools. The latest open weight model released by Openai was GPT-2, in 2019.
What distinguishes an open weight model is the fact that its “weights” are publicly available, which means that anyone can peek at the internal parameters to get an idea of how it processes information. Instead of underestimating the owner models of Openi with a free option, the co -founder Greg Brockman sees this version as “complementary” to the company paid services, such as the programming interface of the applications currently used by many developers. “Open weight models have a very different series of strengths,” said Brockman in a briefing with journalists. Unlike chatgpt, you can perform a GPT-OST model without an internet connection and behind a firewall.
Both GPT-OS models use reasoning approaches of the thinking chain, which Openi distributed for the first time in its model O1 last autumn. Instead of simply giving an output, this approach has generative artificial intelligence tools cross more passages to respond to a prompt. These new text models are not multimodal, but they can navigate the web, call cloud -based models to help with activities, perform code and navigate in the software as an artificial intelligence agent. The smallest of the two models, GPT-OS-20B, is compact enough to work locally on a consumer device with more than 16 GB of memory.
The two new Openi models are available under the Apache 2.0 licenseA popular choice for open weight models. With Apache 2.0, the models can be used for commercial purposes, redistributed and included as part of other authorized software. Released model by open weight from Alibaba Qwen as well Mistral It also operates under Apache 2.0.
Publicly announced in March, the release of these open models was initially delayed for further security tests. The release of an open weight model is potentially more dangerous than a closed version as it removes barriers around those who can use the tool and anyone can try to develop a version of GPT-OS for unintentional purposes.
In addition to the evaluations that Openi generally takes place on its owner models, the startup has customized the open weight option to see how it could potentially be abused by a “bad actor” who download the instrument. “In fact, we have developed the model internally on some of these risk areas,” said Eric Wallace, Openi’s security researcher, “and we measured how much we could push them up”. In Openi’s tests, the model with open weight has not reached a high level of risk, measured by his Preparation framework.
