Open Assistant

Open Assistant is an open-source project that aims to create a chat-enabled conversational AI tool using the GPT LLM model. The project is led by LAION and contributors from around the world. The tool is designed to revolutionize the way people interact with AI by providing amazing conversational capabilities. The project is in its early stages and is based on research in applying Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF) to large language models. Open Assistant will be free to use and modify, with the code and models licensed under Apache 2.0 and the training data released under CC BY 4.0. The tool will also have versions that can run on consumer hardware. The project welcomes individuals to join and collaborate on this open-source initiative. Potential applications of Open Assistant include facilitating natural language conversations, providing AI-powered chatbots, and enabling personalized virtual assistants.
