GPTNeo
GPTNeo is a model released by EleutherAI to try and provide an open source model with capabilities similar to OpenAI's GPT-3 model. One of the earliest such models, GPTNeo was trained on The Pile, Eleuther's corpus of web text.

GPTNeo is a model released by EleutherAI to try and provide an open source model with capabilities similar to OpenAI's GPT-3 model. One of the earliest such models, GPTNeo was trained on The Pile, Eleuther's corpus of web text.
The most recent (as of May 2023) effort from EleutherAI, Pythia is a set of LLMs trained on The Pile. While it appears to outperform OPT and GPTNeo, its performance against GPT-J is unclear. Versions of Pythia have also been instruct-tuned by the team at Together.
