OpenAI plans to release an open heavyweight language model in the coming months

OpenAI plans to release its first inference-capable open heavyweight language model since GPT-2 in the coming months, and the company will talk to developers about how to make it work, Sam Altman, chief executive of OpenAI, said on Monday. Open weighted language models are a type that allow model weights to be adjusted or fine-tuned based on new input data or tasks. "We still have some decisions to make, so we're holding developer events to gather feedback and try out early prototypes later," Altman said.
