The ChatGPT maker is trying to balance closed models and open source efforts, with plans for its first open model since 2019, in a strategic pivot as rivals close in and enterprise demand shifts.

OpenAI plans to release its first open-weight AI model since 2019 as economic pressures mount from competitors like DeepSeek and Meta, marking a significant strategic reversal for the company behind ChatGPT.

Large language models are now commodities, making OpenAI's business model vulnerable to the economics of open-source AI such as DeepSeek, says Kai-Fu Lee.

Together, these open-source contenders signal a shift in the LLM landscape—one with serious implications for enterprises evaluating their AI strategy.

Alibaba Cloud has launched its latest AI model in its "Qwen series," as large language model competition in China continues to heat up.

When training an LLM has enormous costs and environmental impact, it’s worth asking what we gain by creating another one—especially if it isn’t that different from other models.

Pruna AI, a European startup that has been working on compression algorithms for AI models, is making its optimization framework open source on Thursday.
