Nothing that would beat Open AI's stuff (Google's stuff) is open for inference or finetuning from the public.

I think the best Open source alternative is this

https://github.com/THUDM/GLM-130B

But it's not finetuned for instruction so you have to prompt/approach it like a text completer. And also you'll need a 4x3090 to get it running locally.

The best open source instruction finetuned models are the flan t5 models

If you're not necessarily looking for open source but still actual alternatives that aren't just an API wraparound of GPT, you can try cohere

https://cohere.ai/pricing

Good thing is that it's completely free for non commercial or non production use

or alephalpha

https://app.aleph-alpha.com/

Not free but the pricing is decent and they have a visual language model as well. Something like flamingo
