Capabilities
About Llama 3.1 8B Instruct
The Llama 3.1 8B Instruct model, released on July 23, 2024, is a multilingual large language model with 8 billion parameters, optimized for instruction-following tasks. It features an enhanced transformer architecture, supporting languages like English, German, French, and others. The model excels in dialogue applications, having been fine-tuned using supervised fine-tuning and reinforcement learning with human feedback. Trained on approximately 15 trillion tokens with a December 2023 data cutoff, it outperforms many existing open-source and closed chat models in various benchmarks. Ideal for commercial and research applications such as conversational agents and content generation, the model can be accessed on Hugging Face .
