Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B-Instruct

NVIDIA alignment fine-tune of Llama 3.1 70B for enhanced instruction following

Visit huggingface.co ↗

Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B-Instruct is a 70-billion-parameter open-weight language model customized by NVIDIA using RLHF on top of Meta's Llama 3.1 70B. It was trained with the HelpSteer2 dataset to significantly improve helpfulness, coherence, and instruction following. It scores near or above frontier models like GPT-4o on automated alignment benchmarks like Arena-Hard and AlpacaEval 2.

What it's for

  • Serve as an open-weight alternative to proprietary LLMs for conversational agents
  • Generate long-form, coherent natural text and explanations without complex prompting
  • Deploy on-premise inference using TensorRT-LLM and Triton Inference Server

Features

  • Trained using REINFORCE RLHF and HelpSteer2-Preference datasets
  • 128k token context window support
  • Optimized deployment workflows with NVIDIA NeMo and TensorRT-LLM
  • OpenAI-compatible hosted API testing available via build.nvidia.com
  • Available in NeMo format as well as Hugging Face Transformers conversion

Pricing

Free to download under NVIDIA Open Model and Llama 3.1 licenses; free hosted demo API on build.nvidia.com
