Meta Llama 3 70B Model Architecture

The Llama 3 70B model uses an auto-regressive language model with an optimized transformer architecture. It has been trained on over 15 trillion tokens collected from publicly available sources, including a significant amount of high-quality non-English data covering more than 30 languages. Meta has also employed a combination of supervised fine-tuning (SFT), rejection sampling, proximal policy optimization (PPO), and direct preference optimization (DPO) to align the model with human preferences for helpfulness and safety.
