Provides historical placement and chronology but defers architecture, training procedure, capabilities, and implementation details.

GPT-1

As explained in Sutskever's List

GPT-1 is OpenAI's earlier generative transformer language model that preceded GPT-2.

GPT-1 was an early OpenAI language model released in 2018, after focused experiments with Transformer-based approaches. It marked a shift from broad AGI ambitions toward targeted language-model research and preceded GPT-2. section 1.1

A historical turning point

GPT-1 represents the point at which OpenAI’s varied research efforts converged on language models, establishing a progression that continued with GPT-2 and later scaling efforts. section 1.1
