01.AI's Yi models evolve with larger context windows and Apache 2.0 license

01.AI has released several iterations of its Yi models, with varying context window sizes and licensing terms. Initially released in November 2023, the Yi-6B and Yi-34B models featured a 4,096 token context window and a community license requiring registration for commercial use. Subsequent releases, including long-context variants like Yi-6B-200K and Yi-34B-200K, offered up to 200,000 tokens.
