OurseAI Community

Empowering AI for Everyone, on Everyday Hardware.

Our Mission

OurseAI is a community-driven initiative dedicated to developing powerful, open-weight Artificial Intelligence models that are fully operational on consumer-grade hardware. We champion transparency in AI development and believe in democratizing access to cutting-edge technology, fostering innovation, and enabling individuals and smaller organizations to leverage AI without prohibitive costs or infrastructure.

Core Principles

  1. Accessibility: We design models to run efficiently on readily available consumer hardware, ensuring broad usability.
  2. Transparency: We commit to open development processes, sharing insights into our methodologies, and, where feasible, details about our training data.
  3. Open-Weight: All our core models will be released with their weights publicly available, encouraging community collaboration, scrutiny, and further development.
  4. Performance: We aim to create medium-sized models that achieve intellectual performance comparable or superior to larger, proprietary systems.
  5. Community-Driven: OurseAI thrives on the collective intelligence, passion, and contributions of its community members.

Funding & Support

OurseAI is proudly 100% funded by its founder and the generous contributions of our community members and patrons. We believe in recognizing those who make our work possible.

Donor & Contributor Recognition

Individuals and organizations who contribute significantly to OurseAI's development—financially, through code, data, or expertise—will be prominently acknowledged. Recognition may appear on:

  • Our official Organization Page/Card
  • Specific Model Cards
  • Within the model files or documentation themselves (e.g., in a "contributors" or "acknowledgements" section)

We are deeply grateful for every contribution that helps us achieve our ambitious goals.

Our Focus

Our primary objective is to create versatile, medium-sized AI models (e.g., Large Language Models) that rival the intellectual capabilities of much larger, resource-intensive proprietary models. These models will be optimized for inference on standard desktop CPUs and consumer GPUs.

Join Us & Contribute

OurseAI is more than just an organization; it's a movement. Whether you're a developer, researcher, enthusiast, or potential donor, there's a place for you here.
