Will one business model be for OpenAI to "license" out access to their trained model? How large is the model on disk(s) once it is trained?

Will one business model be for OpenAI to "license" out access to their trained model?
How large is the model on disk(s) once it is trained?
- shagie 4y agoFrom various sources, the model itself is about 800 GB on disk.
- theptip 4y agoPerhaps I’m missing your point, but isn’t that what they do with their API right now? You pay for text completions, and can fine-tune their model with your data.
