Aug. 6 (UPI) -- OpenAI announced a new free and open GPT model that Microsoft has made available for Windows. The model is a gpt-oss-20b, available on AI Foundry, and is planned to come soon to the macOS. It's built for code execution and tool use, the model needs at least 16GB of V Ram to run it.

For the first time in five years, OpenAI has released two new free and open-source AI models that are lightweight and designed to be easily integrated into other software programs.

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).
