Who created KwaiYii 13B?

KwaiYii 13B was published by Kuaishou Technology, based in China, categorised as industry.

02

When was KwaiYii 13B released?

KwaiYii 13B was published in August 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.

03

What is KwaiYii 13B used for?

KwaiYii 13B works in Language, and is recorded as handling chat. Models frequently carry more than one of each, and the tags describe purpose rather than capability limits.

04

What GPU do I need to run KwaiYii 13B?

None. KwaiYii 13B 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.

05

Is KwaiYii 13B open source?

No. KwaiYii 13B has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.

06

How many parameters does KwaiYii 13B have?

KwaiYii 13B has 13B parameters. 13B. 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.
