OpenAI Plans To Release a New 'Open' AI Language Model In the Coming Months 6
OpenAI plans to release a new open-weight language model -- its first since GPT-2 -- in the coming months and is seeking community feedback to shape its development. "That's according to a feedback form the company published on its website Monday," reports TechCrunch. "The form, which OpenAI is inviting 'developers, researchers, and [members of] the broader community' to fill out, includes questions like 'What would you like to see in an open-weight model from OpenAI?' and 'What open models have you used in the past?'" From the report: "We're excited to collaborate with developers, researchers, and the broader community to gather inputs and make this model as useful as possible," OpenAI wrote on its website. "If you're interested in joining a feedback session with the OpenAI team, please let us know [in the form] below." OpenAI plans to host developer events to gather feedback and, in the future, demo prototypes of the model. The first will take place in San Francisco within a few weeks, followed by sessions in Europe and Asia-Pacific regions.
OpenAI is facing increasing pressure from rivals such as Chinese AI lab DeepSeek, which have adopted an "open" approach to launching models. In contrast to OpenAI's strategy, these "open" competitors make their models available to the AI community for experimentation and, in some cases, commercialization.

No need to communicate "plans" in advance. Just tell us when it is available for download and offline use. Then it will have its opportunity to prove itself as a potential alternative to DeepSeek's models. Until then it's only marketing noise.
But...but..what about the Supreme product "drop" event at midnight? What about the marketing hype that marketeers cheered for to justify their own existence? What about the hype necessary to sell an inferior product that's barely beta-grade in quality?
You seem to fail to understand how our idiot consumers today expect their products to be delivered; with an appropriate amount of hype bullshit.

All I want is for them to accept my credit card because I hit the limit of questions I can pose regularly.
Oh, and cross conversation memory. The memory it has is way too small.
Otherwise ChatGPT is such a great tool for me, I wouldn't know what else to wish for.
What license? (Score:2)
I bet it will be some research only license. And we will see if it even beats the open competition. I am sure they will keep their best models closed.
