It aimed to standardize how environments are defined in AI research, making released research more easily reproducible [24] [144] while offering users with a simple user interface for engaging with these environments. In 2022, new advancements of Gym have been moved to the library Gymnasium. [145] [146]
Gym Retro

Released in 2018, Gym Retro is a platform for reinforcement learning (RL) research on video games [147] using RL algorithms and study generalization. Prior RL research study focused mainly on enhancing agents to fix single jobs. Gym Retro provides the capability to generalize in between video games with similar concepts but different looks.

RoboSumo

Released in 2017, RoboSumo is a virtual world where humanoid metalearning robot agents initially do not have understanding of how to even walk, but are provided the goals of learning to move and to press the opposing agent out of the ring. [148] Through this adversarial learning process, the agents find out how to adapt to altering conditions. When a representative is then removed from this virtual environment and positioned in a new virtual environment with high winds, the agent braces to remain upright, recommending it had actually learned how to balance in a generalized way. [148] [149] OpenAI's Igor Mordatch argued that competition between representatives could produce an intelligence "arms race" that could increase an agent's ability to operate even outside the context of the competition. [148]
OpenAI 5

OpenAI Five is a team of five OpenAI-curated bots used in the competitive five-on-five computer game Dota 2, that learn to play against human players at a high skill level completely through experimental algorithms. Before ending up being a team of 5, the first public demonstration occurred at The International 2017, the yearly best championship competition for the game, where Dendi, an expert Ukrainian player, lost against a bot in a live individually matchup. [150] [151] After the match, CTO Greg Brockman explained that the bot had actually discovered by playing against itself for 2 weeks of real time, and that the learning software application was an action in the direction of developing software application that can deal with complicated jobs like a surgeon. [152] [153] The system uses a kind of support knowing, as the bots learn gradually by playing against themselves numerous times a day for months, and are rewarded for actions such as eliminating an opponent and taking map goals. [154] [155] [156]
By June 2018, the ability of the bots expanded to play together as a full team of 5, and they were able to beat groups of amateur and semi-professional players. [157] [154] [158] [159] At The International 2018, OpenAI Five played in 2 exhibit matches against expert players, but wound up losing both video games. [160] [161] [162] In April 2019, OpenAI Five defeated OG, the ruling world champions of the video game at the time, 2:0 in a live exhibit match in San Francisco. [163] [164] The bots' final public appearance came later that month, where they played in 42,729 total video games in a four-day open online competition, winning 99.4% of those video games. [165]
OpenAI 5's mechanisms in Dota 2's bot gamer shows the obstacles of AI systems in multiplayer online battle arena (MOBA) games and how OpenAI Five has using deep reinforcement knowing (DRL) representatives to attain superhuman competence in Dota 2 matches. [166]
Dactyl

Developed in 2018, Dactyl utilizes machine finding out to train a Shadow Hand, a human-like robot hand, to control physical things. [167] It discovers totally in simulation using the same RL algorithms and training code as OpenAI Five. OpenAI dealt with the object orientation problem by utilizing domain randomization, a simulation technique which exposes the learner to a range of experiences instead of trying to fit to reality. The set-up for Dactyl, aside from having motion tracking cams, also has RGB cameras to enable the robotic to control an approximate item by seeing it. In 2018, OpenAI showed that the system had the ability to control a cube and an octagonal prism. [168]
In 2019, OpenAI demonstrated that Dactyl might resolve a Rubik's Cube. The robot had the ability to solve the puzzle 60% of the time. Objects like the Rubik's Cube introduce complicated physics that is harder to design. OpenAI did this by enhancing the effectiveness of Dactyl to perturbations by using Automatic Domain Randomization (ADR), a simulation technique of generating progressively harder environments. ADR differs from manual domain randomization by not requiring a human to specify randomization ranges. [169]
API

In June 2020, OpenAI revealed a multi-purpose API which it said was "for accessing new AI models established by OpenAI" to let designers contact it for "any English language AI job". [170] [171]
Text generation

The business has actually promoted generative pretrained transformers (GPT). [172]
OpenAI's initial GPT design ("GPT-1")

The original paper on generative pre-training of a transformer-based language model was written by Alec Radford and his colleagues, and released in preprint on OpenAI's site on June 11, 2018. [173] It showed how a generative design of language could obtain world understanding and procedure long-range dependencies by pre-training on a diverse corpus with long stretches of contiguous text.

GPT-2

Generative Pre-trained Transformer 2 ("GPT-2") is an unsupervised transformer language design and the successor to OpenAI's original GPT design ("GPT-1"). GPT-2 was revealed in February 2019, with only limited demonstrative variations initially launched to the public. The full variation of GPT-2 was not immediately released due to concern about possible abuse, including applications for composing fake news. [174] Some specialists expressed uncertainty that GPT-2 postured a considerable threat.

In response to GPT-2, the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence responded with a tool to identify "neural phony news". [175] Other researchers, such as Jeremy Howard, cautioned of "the innovation to completely fill Twitter, email, and the web up with reasonable-sounding, context-appropriate prose, which would hush all other speech and be impossible to filter". [176] In November 2019, OpenAI launched the total version of the GPT-2 language model. [177] Several websites host interactive demonstrations of different circumstances of GPT-2 and other transformer designs. [178] [179] [180]
GPT-2's authors argue without supervision language models to be general-purpose learners, illustrated by GPT-2 attaining cutting edge accuracy and perplexity on 7 of 8 zero-shot tasks (i.e. the model was not further trained on any task-specific input-output examples).

The corpus it was trained on, called WebText, contains somewhat 40 gigabytes of text from URLs shared in Reddit submissions with at least 3 upvotes. It prevents certain concerns encoding vocabulary with word tokens by utilizing byte pair encoding. This permits representing any string of characters by encoding both individual characters and multiple-character tokens. [181]
GPT-3

First explained in May 2020, Generative Pre-trained [a] Transformer 3 (GPT-3) is a without supervision transformer language design and the follower to GPT-2. [182] [183] [184] OpenAI specified that the complete variation of GPT-3 contained 175 billion criteria, [184] two orders of magnitude larger than the 1.5 billion [185] in the complete version of GPT-2 (although GPT-3 designs with as few as 125 million criteria were also trained). [186]
OpenAI mentioned that GPT-3 prospered at certain "meta-learning" tasks and might generalize the purpose of a single input-output pair. The GPT-3 release paper offered examples of translation and cross-linguistic transfer learning between English and Romanian, and in between English and German. [184]
GPT-3 drastically improved benchmark outcomes over GPT-2. OpenAI warned that such scaling-up of language designs might be approaching or coming across the essential ability constraints of predictive language designs. [187] Pre-training GPT-3 needed numerous thousand petaflop/s-days [b] of calculate, compared to 10s of petaflop/s-days for the complete GPT-2 model. [184] Like its predecessor, [174] the GPT-3 trained design was not immediately released to the general public for issues of possible abuse, although OpenAI prepared to permit gain access to through a paid cloud API after a two-month complimentary personal beta that began in June 2020. [170] [189]
