Request example

import replicate

# reads REPLICATE_API_TOKEN from env
# phi-3-mini-4k format: "owner/model-name" (latest version) or "owner/model-name:version-hash"
output = replicate.run(
    "phi-3-mini-4k",
    input={"prompt": "Hello"}
)
# Output is a list or generator depending on the model
print("".join(output))

Gotchas

  • Replicate uses "owner/model-name" format (e.g. "meta/meta-llama-3-8b-instruct") for the latest version, or "owner/model-name:version-sha" to pin to a specific version. The REST endpoint splits owner and model-name into the path: /v1/models/{owner}/{model-name}/predictions.
  • The examples expect REPLICATE_API_TOKEN; rename it only if your application config maps the new variable.

About Phi-3 Mini 4k

The Phi-3 Mini-4K-Instruct model by Microsoft is an advanced, lightweight language model boasting 3.8 billion parameters, optimized for environments with limited computational resources. It excels in various natural language processing tasks, especially in reasoning, text generation, and maintaining multi-turn conversations. Trained on a mix of synthetic and high-quality data, the model is tailored for effective instruction-following. Despite its capabilities, it has limitations in factual knowledge and multilingual support, often requiring external resources to enhance accuracy. The model is ideal for commercial and research applications that demand efficient processing, such as mobile apps and real-time systems.
