OpenAI just open sourced a new 1.5B (50m active) model on HuggingFace with Apache 2.0 license!
It's not a new LLM, this one is called Privacy Filter, and it's a PII detection model (checking if text has private information)
A few interesting tidbits from the release links:

Should I use superterm.dev, superset.sh, or supacode.sh? Because we're competing with open-source openclaw by openai.

CONTRACT.md: The Naughty List for AI Coding Agents
My 2026 resolution: stop letting LLMs overcomplexify greenfield work.

Can someone make a time-traveling debugger with GPT4 which watches the entire state of my program's execution, and allow me to retroactively debug it? @ilyasut

Prediction: AI will cause the price of work that can happen in front of a computer to decrease much faster than the price of work that happens in the physical world.
This is the opposite of what most people (including me) expected, and will have strange effects.
