So if you want to check out the capabilities of the model, follow our article and learn how to use the Llama 3.1 405B model right away.
Llama-3.1 (405B, 70B, 8B) + Groq + TogetherAI + OpenWebUI: FREE WAY TO USE ALL Llama-3.1 Models
US users can chat with the Llama 3.1 405B model on Meta AI and WhatsApp itself. Meta is initially rolling out the larger model to US users only. Here's how to access it.
If you're not from the US, don't worry. You can still use the Llama 3.1 405B model on HuggingChat. It hosts the Instruct-based FP8 quantized model and the platform is completely free to use.
Groq also hosts the Llama 3.1 family of models including the 70B and 8B models. It used to serve the largest 405B model but due to high traffic and server issues Groq seems to have removed it for now. Meanwhile, Llama 3.1 70B and 8B are available and these models generate responses at a lightning-fast speed of 250 tokens per second.
