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.

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.

Training compute
4.3 × 10²³ FLOP

4.21 × 10^23 (base model reported training compute) + 4.68 × 10^21 (finetune compute) = 4.2568e+23 FLOP

What the numbers mean

What this model is

EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B was published by LG AI Research, in Korea (Republic of), in March 2025. The organisation is categorised as industry.

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

It builds on EXAONE 3.5 7.8B, which is why it shares that model's general shape and size.

Because the weights are not available, none of the hardware figures elsewhere on this site apply to it.

What went into building it

Training it took roughly 4.3 × 10²³ FLOP of computation — a measure of what producing the model cost, not of how fast it answers.

Answers

EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B — common questions

01

How many parameters does EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B have?

EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B has 7.8B parameters. 7.8B. 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 EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B?

EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B was published by LG AI Research, based in Korea (Republic of), categorised as industry.

03

When was EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B released?

EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B was published in March 2025.

04

What is EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B used for?

EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B works in Language, and is recorded as handling language modeling/generation, Question answering, Translation. 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

How much compute was used to train EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B?

Around 4.3 × 10²³ 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 EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B?

None. EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B 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 EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B open source?

No. EXAONE 3.5-R 7.8B has not had its weights published, so it exists only as a service controlled by its owner.
