OpenAI just released their first truly competitive open source models called GPT-OSS, matching their frontier O3 performance while you can run them locally for free. This could be a game-changer as it puts America back in the open source AI race against China, especially after Meta pulled back from releasing powerful open models. The timing suggests GPT-5 might drop Thursday, making this OpenAI's biggest week yet.
