Meta recently released Llama 3, a powerful AI model that excels at understanding context, handling complex tasks, and generating diverse responses. With Private LLM, a local AI chatbot, you can now run Meta Llama 3 8B Instruct locally on your iPhone, iPad, and Mac, enabling you to engage in conversations, generate code, and automate tasks while keeping your data private and secure.

Private LLM operates entirely offline, ensuring your information stays secure on your device. The Llama 3 8B model is compatible with iPhone 13 Pro and newer models, as well as any Intel or Apple Silicon Mac. For optimal performance on iOS, we recommend using devices with 8GB of RAM, such as the iPhone 15 Pro, which allows you to take full advantage of Llama 3's impressive 8K context length - a feature not available on personal computers with other local LLM solutions such as Ollama.

Llama 3 has a reduced false refusal rate, enabling more open and engaging dialogues across various topics. This makes it easier to explore niche subjects or ask everyday questions without the AI refusing to participate in the conversation.
