Getting the models
Meta
You can get the Llama models directly from Meta or through Hugging Face or Kaggle. However you get the models, you will first need to accept the license agreements for the models you want.
For more detailed information about each of the Llama models, see the Model section immediately following this section.
To get the models directly from Meta, go to our Llama download form at
Fill in your information–including your email. Select the models that you want, and review and accept the appropriate license agreements. For each model that you request, you will receive an email that contains instructions and a pre-signed URL to download that model. You can use the same URL to download multiple model weights, such as 8B and 70B.
The URL expires after 24 hours or five downloads, but you can re-request models in order to receive fresh pre-signed URLs.
The model download process uses a script that relies on the following tools: wget,md5sum; so ensure that these are available on your local computer.
