How to run it

These are full-precision weights, usually loaded with Hugging Face Transformers or Diffusers on a GPU.

Plan for roughly 5 GB of memory to load it (our estimate from its size and format).

The model card on Hugging Face has the exact usage code.

Where to run it

On your own computer, free

  • Ollama · free app for Mac, Windows and Linux
  • LM Studio · free desktop app with a chat window

Both load GGUF builds; for other formats, look for a GGUF version of this model.

In the cloud

Needs about 5 GB: a 24 GB GPU such as an RTX 4090 or RTX A5000 is enough.
