There's a bunch of other fully open models, including the [Marin](https://marin.community/) series of models out of Stanford and Nvidia regularly releases fully open models.
MoEs have a lot of technical complexity and aren't well supported in the open source world. We plan to release a MoE soon(ish).
I do think that MoEs are clearly the future. I think we will release more MoEs moving forward once we have the tech in place to do so efficiently. For all use cases except local usage, I think that MoEs are clearly superior to dense models.

7B models are mostly useful for local use on consumer GPUs. 32B could be used for a lot of applications. There’s a lot of companies using fine tuned Qwen 3 models that might want to switch to Olmo now that we have released a 32B base model.
