Quick Start

  1. 1
    Create an account at Replicate API and generate an API key.
  2. 2
    Use the Replicate API SDK or REST API to call olmo-7b — see the documentation for request format.

Code Examples

Install
pip install replicate
API key
REPLICATE_API_TOKEN
Model ID
olmo-7b

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.

import replicate

# reads REPLICATE_API_TOKEN from env
# olmo-7b format: "owner/model-name" (latest version) or "owner/model-name:version-hash"
output = replicate.run(
    "olmo-7b",
    input={"prompt": "Hello"}
)
# Output is a list or generator depending on the model
print("".join(output))

About OLMo 7B

OLMo 7B is a large language model created by the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI2), characterized by its open-source nature where model weights, training data, code, and evaluation tools have been publicly released. It utilizes a decoder-only transformer architecture, featuring 32 layers, a hidden size of 4096, and 32 attention heads, among other features. Trained on 2.5 trillion tokens from the Dolma dataset, this model excels in text generation, question answering, and language understanding, with performance metrics often comparable to or exceeding those of similar-sized models.
