โLlama 3 ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฆ
What is this lama all about? Well Facebook, has been launching open-source models for a couple of years now. This week they announced a new gen-3 AI model called Llama 3.
- Why should I bother?
You shouldn't bother ๐
, you just should know that you can use it at meta.ai, that is if you are in the US, otherwise just plug-in your favourite VPN, and the floor is yours.
- What can it do?
It can do the same thing as others do, but just better, or at least that's what's Facebook sayin.
- I like when my ice-cream ๐ฆ has different flavours!
Worry not! Llama 3 has 2 flavours too! It comes in Llama 3 70B and 8B, which literally counts their parameters, so 70 Billion parameters and 8 billion parameters. These parameters shows how much pre-trained data they are using, but this is a little less transparent, so think of it as magic ๐ช.
- Enough! I want to download and test them myself!
Of course, just share some of your personal details or (fake ones + 10MinuteMail) with facebook and download them all right here.

All in all, I think this is progress, and as a developer I'm super happy this model is open source, because it allows people without the expensive gear experiment and play around with the AI capabilities!
