To get maximum tokens generated for target CPU
LLMs are Getting Better and Smaller Let’s look at Llama as an example. The rapid evolution of these models highlights a key trend in AI: prioritizing efficiency and performance. When Llama 2 70B launched in August 2023, it was considered a top-tier foundational model. However, its massive size demanded powerful hardware like the NVIDIA H100 accelerator. Less than nine months later, Meta introduced Llama 3 8B, shrinking the model by almost 9x. This enabled it to run on smaller
