Llama 3 vs. Llama 3.3

LLM Comparison


Llama 3

Llama 3

Overview

Llama 3 is Meta AI's open source LLM available for both research and commercial use cases (assuming you have less than 700 million monthly active users).


The successor to Llama 2, Llama 3 demonstrates state-of-the-art performance on benchmarks and is, according to Meta, the "best open source models of their class, period". Improvements to the pretraining -- 7X more data than Llama 2 --- and post-training -- careful curation of instruction-tuning data -- processes result in improved alignment and output quality

Overview

Llama 3.3 is Meta's end of 2024 Llama release, offering improved performance over Llama 3.2 with enhanced reasoning capabilities and better multilingual support.


Llama 3.3 represents Meta's continued advancement in open-source language models. Building upon the success of Llama 3.1 and 3.2, version 3.3 offers significant improvements in reasoning, coding, and multilingual tasks. The 70B parameter model provides performance competitive with much larger proprietary models while maintaining Meta's commitment to open-source accessibility for most commercial use cases.
