Instructions to use meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("meta-llama/Llama-3.3-70B-Instruct")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

Hello,

I requested access, but my request was rejected. I believe I filled out all the information that was requested correctly.

Could you please provide a reason why this was rejected?

Thank you.

Same. Are they not taking requests for Llama 3.3 anymore?

Great discussion! For anyone wanting to quickly test this, Crazyrouter offers API access to this model. No infrastructure setup needed — just an API key and the standard OpenAI SDK.
