    The paper explains absolutely everything as if it was a tutorial &quot;how to made your own modern agentic LLM&quot;. They even tell how they made their dataset. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;aleph-alpha.com&#x2F;downloads&#x2F;tech-report.pdf" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;aleph-alpha.com&#x2F;downloads&#x2F;tech-report.pdf ; It&#x27;s the first time I see this level of openness.

      Isnt OLMO basically open like this? My understanding is people have recreated the model from the same data sources with repeatable responses, or reasonably close to the original (since LLMs never answer the same).

        LLMs can be configured to basically be deterministic. It&#x27;s only really bad for performance because language is not deterministic.
