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.

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.

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

BlueLM 175B was published by vivo AI lab, in China, in November 2023. The organisation is categorised as industry.

It works in Language, and is recorded as doing chat, Language modeling/generation, Question answering.

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

The training run consumed about 1.1 × 10²⁴ FLOP. That figure describes the cost of creating it and has no bearing on how quickly it generates text.

Answers

BlueLM 175B — common questions

01

How many parameters does BlueLM 175B have?

BlueLM 175B has 175B 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 BlueLM 175B?

BlueLM 175B was published by vivo AI lab, based in China, categorised as industry.

03

When was BlueLM 175B released?

BlueLM 175B was published in November 2023. 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 BlueLM 175B used for?

BlueLM 175B works in Language, and is recorded as handling chat, Language modeling/generation, Question answering. These are the areas it was designed around; they describe intent rather than a hard boundary.

05

How much compute was used to train BlueLM 175B?

Around 1.1 × 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.

06

What GPU do I need to run BlueLM 175B?

None. BlueLM 175B 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.

07

Is BlueLM 175B open source?

No. BlueLM 175B has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
