OpenAI to release its first ‘open’ language model since GPT-2 in 2019
OpenAI is preparing to launch an open version of its language model, making it available for developers to run on their own hardware for the first time since the release of GPT-2 in 2019. In a recent update, CEO Sam Altman announced plans to introduce a new open-weight language model focused on enhancing reasoning capabilities. The company aims to collect developer feedback and will host events to discuss model features and gather insights before the launch. Unlike previous models like GPT-3 and GPT-4, which were closed systems, this new model will allow users to modify it to fit their needs. Developer events are set to commence in San Francisco, with further sessions planned in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. OpenAI acknowledges that this model will likely be modified post-release and expresses excitement about the potential developments in its applications by large companies and governments.
