Summary
Open AI has announced the release of two open source large language models (LLMs) called gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b for free under an Apache 2.0 license, following in the steps of leading Chinese AI rivals.
Enterprises and indie developers can now download and modify the code to use the models locally without a web connection for maximum privacy.
The models perform well across non-English languages but OpenAI has not specified which ones.
According to OpenAI, the models perform better than some of its paid models and rank highly on public AI benchmarking leaderboards.
Greg Brockman, OpenAI’s president, views the release of the two models as complementary to the company’s paid products.
The company’s $13bn in annual revenue is largely driven by its ChatGPT product and API, which has attracted 700m weekly users.
