OpenAI's New Models Aren't Really Open: What to Know About Open-Weights AI

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-12-10 22:11:45

Despite the company's name, OpenAI hasn't dropped an open version of its AI models since GPT-2 in 2019. That changed on Tuesday, as CEO Sam Altman shared two new open-weights, reasoning AI models, named gpt-oss-120b (120 billion parameters) and gpt-oss-20b (20 billion parameters). If open-weights is a new piece of AI jargon to you, don't worry. In the simplest possible terms, open-weights is a category of AI models that power products like chatbots, image and video generators.

If you know where to look, it’s surprisingly easy to save on an iPad — even outside of major sales events like Amazon Prime Day and Black Friday. Here’s an insider tip: skip the Apple Store, where discounts are almost nonexistent. Instead, your best bet is to check third-party retailers like Amazon, Walmart, and Best Buy, which frequently offer deals on everything from the entry-level iPad to the powerhouse iPad Pro, making it possible to snag a bargain any time of the year.

Elyse Betters Picaro / ZDNET ZDNET's key takeaways OpenAI GPT-5 will be released "soon," which could be this week. It will automatically select the best model for prompts. It should help produce higher-quality and faster answers. Despite OpenAI just launching its highly anticipated open-source models on Tuesday, people are already on the lookout for OpenAI's next big move, with rumblings of an even bigger release on the near horizon: GPT-5.

Don’t hold your breath for OpenAI’s new model to run on your phone’s Snapdragon chip

TL;DR The new OpenAI model can now run directly on some devices with Snapdragon chips. It’s the first time an OpenAI reasoning model has been made available for on-device use. This could mean faster, more private AI features on your phone, just not yet. When you use an AI model like ChatGPT, it runs in the cloud rather than on your phone or laptop, but Qualcomm seems eager to change that. The company has announced that OpenAI’s first open-source reasoning model, with the less-than-catchy name
