OpenAIs open language model is about to come out, which may deepen the rift with Microsoft

Odaily News Microsofts complicated relationship with OpenAI is about to take a dramatic turn as the company prepares to release an open language model, which could further widen the rift between the two companies, just as the two sides renegotiate their contract to allow OpenAI to reorganize as a for-profit company.
According to people familiar with the matter, the AI lab led by Sam Altman will release an open weight model next week, which will not only be available on OpenAI and Microsoft Azure servers, but will also be open to other cloud service providers. Unlike the closed weight model usually adopted by OpenAI, the weight parameters (a training parameter) released this time will be open to the public. This openness means that companies and governments can deploy the model independently. (The Verge)
