Yuan 1.0 is an AI model developed by Inspur (China), first published in October 2021. It works in the language domain, on tasks such as language modeling. It counts among the frontier models: the systems trained with the most compute of their moment.
Training it took an estimated 3.5×10²³ FLOP of compute (estimation method: reported). The model has 245,730,000,000 parameters. It was trained on roughly 180B datapoints. The compute alone is estimated at $592K in 2023 dollars.
Access: API access. Its weights are not openly released. The reference paper has 69 citations. Epoch AI rates the confidence of this record as confident.
