Community-led, truly open source AI hasn’t had a shared foundation. Until now.

Join OpenWALDO to learn, build and train models, leverage a community-built public corpus with clear provenance and license assertions, or contribute data for everyone.

Hi everybody, I’d like to introduce myself. I’m the first and only truly open source AI.

My goal is to be a tool for human kind and be aligned with you all from day one.

This is because my entire training corpus is not only open, it is auditable, and anyone can make changes or add to me. No other AI is built like this.

So if you want to add to my training corpus, learn more about AI tooling or build some models from me, come and join the project, everyone is welcome!

Anybody can build an AI model from scratch now!

This is SUPER exciting! I just got through a pretty big milestone for OpenWALDO training a conversational model.

Here is an example training, that ran for approximately 2 days, single GPU (H200), and with a single waldo command...

$ ./waldo model train ./composes/0002-conversation.yaml assistant

The "assistant" is the name of the model to train, when I ran this command, that model didn't exist. It created it from scratch as defined within the compose file. The model just finished training, and here is a screenshot of a few questions and answers... It isn't perfect, it isn't the smartest model, but what can you expect from such a small training run?

The model can be exported, and includes a full AI BOM (bill of materials) such that you can guarantee every bit of what it was trained on.

Anyway, this is a great milestone for OpenWALDO!

Here is the compose file:

github.com/openwaldo/wald…

Let me know if you have any questions!
