OpenLMLab/MOSS
MOSS
MOSS is a conversational AI platform, fine-tuning toolkit, and quantized model runtime. It provides a framework for deploying large language models capable of multi-turn dialogue, general-purpose response generation, and following complex instructions.
The system functions as a tool-augmented framework that extends model knowledge through external plugins and tool-call loops. This allows the model to execute tasks via search engines and calculators to augment responses with external data.
The project covers model training through supervised conversational fine-tuning and optimizes deployment via low-bit weight quantization to reduce GPU memory usage. It includes a REST-based API with stateful session management and a web interface for interactive chat sessions.
