# Call the server using curl (OpenAI-compatible API):
curl -X POST "http://localhost:8000/v1/completions" \
	-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
	--data '{
		"model": "meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B",
		"prompt": "Once upon a time,",
		"max_tokens": 512,
		"temperature": 0.5
	}'

Use Docker

docker model run hf.co/meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B

Dear Meta Llama Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to kindly request access to the meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B model for non-commercial academic research.

My research is strictly academic and educational in nature. I have carefully reviewed the Llama 3.2 Community License Agreement and Acceptable Use Policy, and I fully commit to complying with all terms. The model will only be used in a secure, local, and offline environment.

Thank you for your support of the open-source research community and for considering my request. I truly appreciate your time.
