Llama 3 is the latest language model from Meta. It has [state of the art performance](https://github.com/meta-llama/llama3/blob/main/eval_details.md) and a context window of 8000 tokens, double Llama 2's context window.

The Llama 3 instruction tuned models are optimized for dialogue use cases and outperform many of the available open source chat models on common industry benchmarks. Further, in developing these models, we took great care to optimize helpfulness and safety. **Model developers** Meta **Variations** Llama 3 comes in two sizes — 8B and 70B parameters — in pre-trained and ins
