Baichuan3

Closed weights Baichuan 100B parameters January 2024

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.

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 the numbers mean

Background

Baichuan3 was published by Baichuan, in China, in January 2024. The organisation is categorised as industry.

It works in Language, Medicine, and is recorded as doing language modeling/generation, Question answering, Code generation, Mathematical reasoning, Medical diagnosis.

Its weights were never published, so it can only be reached through its provider. No graphics card changes that.

Answers

Baichuan3 — common questions

01

How many parameters does Baichuan3 have?

Baichuan3 has 100B parameters. "Baichuan Intelligence releases Baichuan 3, a large-scale model with over 100 billion data points, with Chinese evaluation level exceeding GPT-4" *different sources report diffrenetly: "over 100 billion" or "1 trillion" 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.

02

Who created Baichuan3?

Baichuan3 was published by Baichuan, based in China, categorised as industry.

03

When was Baichuan3 released?

Baichuan3 was published in January 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.

04

What is Baichuan3 used for?

Baichuan3 works in Language, Medicine, and is recorded as handling language modeling/generation, Question answering, Code generation, Mathematical reasoning, Medical diagnosis. A model can carry several of each, so these are the areas it was built for rather than a limit on what it will attempt.

05

What GPU do I need to run Baichuan3?

None. Baichuan3 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.

06

Is Baichuan3 open source?

No. Baichuan3 has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
