The paper presents the OpenThoughts project, which develops open-source datasets for training reasoning models to address the lack of publicly available data. Their OpenThoughts3 dataset, created through extensive controlled experiments, enables training of the OpenThinker3-7B model that outperforms previous state-of-the-art models on several reasoning benchmarks. All datasets and models are publicly released to support further research in reasoning AI.
