## Model Details:  LLaVA-llama-3-8B

`llava-llama-3-8b` is a large multimodal model (LMM) trained using the [LLaVA-v1.5 framework](https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.03744) with the 8-billion parameter [`meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct`](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B) model as language backbone and the CLIP-based vision encoder.

## Intended Use

| Intended Use | Description |
| ----------- | ----------- | 
| Primary intended uses | The model has been finetuned for multimodal benchmark evaluations, but can also be used as a multimodal chatbot. | 
| Primary intended users | Anyone using or evaluating multimodal models. | 
| Out-of-scope uses | This model is not intended for uses that require high levels of factuality, high stakes situations, mental health or medical applications, generating misinformation or disinformation, impersonating others, facilitating or inciting harassment or violence, any use that could lead to the violation of a human right under the UN Declaration of Human Rights. |


### How to use

Please note, we only provide the trained weights difference and do not provide a copy of the base meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct model. Any use of these weights requires a separate download of the base model.
