It&rsquo;s perfect for building autonomous assistants or embedding AI into real-world workflows, even in bandwidth-constrained environments.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Launched on Tuesday, OpenAI&rsquo;s gpt-oss-20b can run on consumer PCs and laptops with at least 16GB of VRAM, which a modern GPU from Nvidia or Radeon would have. OpenAI said the model was trained using high-compute reinforcement learning, which helps it excel at powering AI agents and call tools, such as web search or Python code execution, as part of its chain-of-thought process.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, the model is text-only, meaning it will not be able to process or generate images and audio like the company&rsquo;s other models. <\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Also, the model has a habit of hallucinating a lot: gpt-oss-20b hallucinated in response to 53% of questions on PersonQA, OpenAI&rsquo;s in-house benchmark for measuring the accuracy of a model&rsquo;s knowledge about people.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Microsoft says it will bring the model to macOS soon, as well as other devices, though the company did not name any more. Microsoft is also making both gpt-oss-20b and older model gpt-oss-120b available via its hosted Azure AI Foundry platform.<\/p>\n<div class=\"internal-linking-related-contents\"><a href=\"https:\/\/jobuzo.com\/en\/12-weeks-jail-for-school-it-support-technician-who-took-upskirt-videos-of-teachers\/\" class=\"template-1\"><span class=\"cta\">News :<\/span><span class=\"postTitle\">&lt;div&gt;12 weeks' jail for school IT support technician who took upskirt videos of teachers&lt;\/div&gt;<\/span><\/a><\/div><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The two new models are also available on Amazon&rsquo;s AWS.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-techcrunch-inline-cta\">\n<div class=\"inline-cta__wrapper\" readability=\"5.3\">\n<p>Techcrunch event<\/p>\n<div class=\"inline-cta__content\" readability=\"24.75\">\n<p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-cta__location\">San Francisco<\/span><br>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-cta__separator\">|<\/span><br>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"inline-cta__date\">October 27-29, 2025<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><sub>Microsoft brings OpenAI&rsquo;s smallest open model to Windows users<\/sub><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft is making OpenAI&rsquo;s new free and open GPT model, gpt-oss-20b, available to Windows 11 users via Windows AI Foundry, the tech giant&rsquo;s platform that lets users tap AI features, APIs, and popular open-source models on their computers.
