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

LLaDA was published by Renmin University of China,Ant Group, in China, in February 2025. academia,Industry is the category the publisher falls under.

It works in Language, and is recorded as doing code generation, Language modeling/generation.

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

How it was trained

The training set ran to roughly 2,300,000,000,000 tokens.

Answers

LLaDA — common questions

01

Is LLaDA open source?

The licensing for LLaDA was never recorded in our source data. We treat unstated licensing as closed, because an unrecorded licence is not one to rely on.

02

How many parameters does LLaDA have?

LLaDA has 8B 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.

03

Who created LLaDA?

LLaDA was published by Renmin University of China,Ant Group, based in China, categorised as academia,Industry.

04

When was LLaDA released?

LLaDA was published in February 2025.

05

What is LLaDA used for?

LLaDA works in Language, and is recorded as handling code generation, Language modeling/generation. 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.

06

What GPU do I need to run LLaDA?

None. LLaDA 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.

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.
