Introduction

The FAQ page is available athere.

Open Assistant (abbreviated as OA) is a chat-based and open-source assistant. The vision of the project is to make a large language model that can run on a single high-end consumer GPU. With some modifications, Open Assistant should also be able to interface with other third-party applications easily as well as retrieve information from databases and the Internet.

You can play with our current best model here!

You should join theOpen Assistant discord serverand/or comment on Github issues before making any major changes. Most dev communications take place on the Discord server. There are four main areas that you can work on:

  1. Ranking, labelling and making responses inopen-assistant.io. You can take a look attasks docs section for more information.
  2. Curating datasets and performing data augmentation. This includes scraping, gathering other public datasets, etc. Most of these efforts will be concentrated at/data/datasetsand are documented athere.
  3. Creating and fine-tuning Open Assistant itself. For that, you should pay special attention to/model.
  4. open-assistant.io dev. Take a close look at/website as well as/backend.
