Overview
Description
The big picture: Meta's Llama 3 gives businesses and creators access to powerful large language models (8B to 70B parameters) for building AI applications. Here's why it matters: you can run pre-trained and instruction-tuned models locally for text generation and chat, with model weights and inference code provided. The bottom line: this repo is deprecated in favor of the newer Llama 3.1 / Llama Stack ecosystem.
