Sovereignty and hosting

Catalogue only

This model is catalogued for reference. It is not hosted on LLM EU yet, and no first-party endpoint serves it here. Requests to it go to the provider directly, under that provider's own terms.

Summary

Llama 3.3 70B Instruct is the December 2024 refresh of Meta’s 70B instruct model, with a 128k-token context window and the same Llama 3.3 Community License terms as Llama 3.1. Meta positions it as an alternative to the larger Llama 3.1 405B for general assistant work. It is text-only and is the largest dense Llama checkpoint still in common self-hosted use.

Verification status

Where a field has no source, the card shows it as unverified instead of filling it in. An empty field is information.

LLM EU Verified means documented, not legally certified. It is not an AI Act conformity assessment and LLM EU is not an EU body.

Example request

curl https://api.llmeu.com/v1/chat/completions \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $LLMEU_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"model":"llama-3-3-70b-instruct","messages":[{"role":"user","content":"Hello"}]}'

No playground is deployed for this model: no endpoint serves it, so a request would have nowhere to go.

Benchmarks

No published evaluation. This is a gap, not a hidden result.
