But training a model of this size requires you to use thousands of GPUs, or wait forever. That will sum up to millions of $$$ in rental and electricity costs.
- emteycz 6y agoThat seems like the reason why won't they share the trained model. Somebody needs to pay for that, how would they fund it if they just shared it? As far as my thinking goes, they are open more than enough. Thank you for your input!
- fxtentacle 6y agoThey claim to be a well funded nonprofit.
- emteycz 6y agoYeah, and that nonprofit probably wouldn't really be doing its mission it got funding for if they were handing out computing, instead of research
- fxtentacle 6y agoWell, they are withholding the information needed to verify their research. That is generally frowned upon in science. Plus, they are called OpenAI but producing a closed source product...
- emteycz 6y agoIt's not a product, it all boils down to raw computing work. Their mission is to do open research, not provide computing time that they paid for for free. Similarly, Red Hat does not have to provide free cloud computing because they also contribute to Linux and use it.
- dvfjsdhgfv 6y agoLooks like a great opportunity for someone to step in and organize a project aimed at recreating that. I for one would be more than glad to donate my GPUs' time for something that would be useful for all humanity, for free.
