OpenAI releases gpt-oss-120b and gpt-oss-20b, two state-of-the-art open-weight language models that deliver strong real-world performance at low cost. They outperform similarly sized open models on reasoning tasks and are optimized for efficient deployment.
This article discusses the history of AI, the split between neural networks and symbolic AI, and the recent vindication of neurosymbolic AI through the advancements of models like o3 and Grok 4. It argues that combining the strengths of both approaches is crucial for achieving true AI and highlights the resistance to neurosymbolic AI from some leaders in the deep learning field.
