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.
On record
Full specification
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
- Image generation
- Task
- Text-to-image, Image 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.

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
What this model is
YaART was published by Yandex, in Russia, in April 2024. It comes out of industry.
It works in Image generation, and is recorded as doing text-to-image, Image generation.
This is a closed model: the trained values stayed with whoever produced them, and there is no local version to run.
How it was trained
Training it took roughly 8.2 × 10¹⁹ FLOP of computation, on NVIDIA A100 SXM4 80 GB — a measure of what producing the model cost, not of how fast it answers.
Answers
YaART — common questions
What GPU do I need to run YaART?
None. YaART 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.
Is YaART open source?
No. YaART has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
How many parameters does YaART have?
YaART has 2.3B parameters. 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.
Who created YaART?
YaART was published by Yandex, based in Russia, categorised as industry.
When was YaART released?
YaART was published in April 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.
What is YaART used for?
YaART works in Image generation, and is recorded as handling text-to-image, Image generation. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.
How much compute was used to train YaART?
Around 8.2 × 10¹⁹ FLOP, on NVIDIA A100 SXM4 80 GB. 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.
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.
