PLaMo-100B
No estimate
No hardware requirements for this model
The weights for this model have not been published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any size. It is reachable only through its provider, and no graphics card changes that.

Everything on record for this model. Most of it describes how it was trained rather than how it runs — useful context for judging how much work went into it, and how it compares with models built at a different scale.

What it does
The problem areas the model was built for. A model can carry several of each.
- Domain
- Language
- Task
- Language modeling/generation
Size
How large the model is and how much data it was trained on. Parameters are the figure that decides whether it fits on a given graphics card.
- Parameters
- 100B
- Training data
- tokens
"The pre-trained model of PLaMo-100B developed this time was trained on a total of 2T tokens of both Japanese and English text data."
Training compute
The arithmetic performed to train the model, measured in floating-point operations. It is a measure of what the training run cost, not of how fast the finished model answers you.

What the numbers mean
About this model
PLaMo-100B was published by Preferred Networks Inc, in the country recorded as Japan, during June 2024. The publishing organisation is categorised as industry.
It works in the domain of Language, and is recorded as performing the task of language modeling/generation.
Its weights were never published, so it can only be reached through its provider. No graphics card changes that.
What went into building it
Training it took a computation budget of roughly 1.2 × 10²⁴ FLOP. That figure measures what producing the model cost, and has no bearing on how fast it answers.
Answers
PLaMo-100B — common questions
PLaMo-100B— who created it?
It was published by Preferred Networks Inc, based in Japan, an organisation categorised as industry.
PLaMo-100B— when was it released?
It was published in June 2024. Capability per parameter has improved considerably since, so a newer model of the same size is often the better use of the same hardware.
PLaMo-100B— what is it used for?
It works in the domain of Language, and is recorded as handling the task of language modeling/generation. Models frequently carry more than one of each, and the tags describe purpose rather than capability limits.
PLaMo-100B— how much compute was used to train it?
Training consumed around 1.2 × 10²⁴ FLOP. That measures what producing the model cost and says nothing about how quickly it answers once trained — inference speed comes from memory bandwidth, not from the training budget.
PLaMo-100B— what GPU do I need to run it?
None. This is a closed model — its weights were never published, so it cannot be downloaded or run on your own hardware at any price. It is reachable only through its provider.
PLaMo-100B— is it open source?
No. Its weights have not been published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
PLaMo-100B— how many parameters does it have?
It has a parameter count of 100B. That figure is the total, and it is what decides how much memory the model needs — roughly half a gigabyte per billion at the compression most people use.
The other direction
Looking at it from the other side?
This page starts from the model. If you already own a card and want to know everything it will run, start from the hardware instead.
