What would you like to see in an open-weight model from OpenAI? Explain what you would use it for
See... that's kinda the idea behind an open model. I don't have to explain what I would use it for.
- bigyabai 2y agoThe idea that they want to train a new custom model for open release instead of just... giving us GPT-3 already suggests a terrible start. I'm calling it now, this is a strategic counterplay against Google's Gemma models so @sama can sell Tim Cook a "frontier" local model that doesn't compete with anything coherent. A fig leaf for their "Open" identity and a paper tiger for the Apple Intelligence panoply. OpenAI doesn't believe in Open Source, they merely want it's prestige without committing to it on-principle.
- minimaxir 2y ago> instead of just... giving us GPT-3 If you're referring to the GPT-3 from 2020, modern open source models five years later are a) better at benchmarks b) much smaller yet still better at said benchmarks c) much, much cheaper/faster due to architectural improvements. The real hard thing for OpenAI to do is to release an open-weights model that's better/more differentiated than Gemma 3 (at the small scale) or DeepSeek R1 (at the large scale)
- mackenly 2y agoBut if OpenAI was Open, they'd open-source those old obsolete models. You're right that no one really wants it, and it has little to no commercial value at this point, but that's all the more reason they should just put it out there and actually live up to their name.

- refulgentis 2y agoIs there anything about training a new model? I just assumed they were asking for all the little bits that companies forget to do at release with an open model.

- hashemian 2y agoThe original comment says "their mentality about open-model is wrong, evident from their post". Does not say it's shady! Why to be cynical?
- koakuma-chan 2y agoI'm surprised they expect people to voluntarily undergo that interrogation, for their feedback to then be processed by some LLM.
- vntok 2y agoIf you're interested in the field, why wouldn't you answer the questionnaire? It costs you basically nothing while the upside is getting something that is potentially at least a tiny bit more useful to you than if you hadn't said anything?
- koakuma-chan 2y agoIt takes time and will likely be ignored.
- jug 2y agoSounds like an open GPT-4o / o1 distill or something… And that they want to know what to go for.
