Llama4

Llama 4, developed by Meta, introduces a new auto-regressive Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) architecture. This generation includes two models:

- The highly capable Llama 4 Maverick with 17B active parameters out of ~400B total, with 128 experts.
- The efficient Llama 4 Scout also has 17B active parameters out of ~109B total, using just 16 experts.
- Both models leverage early fusion for native multimodality, enabling them to process text and image inputs. Maverick and Scout are both trained on up to 40 trillion tokens on data encompassing 200 languages (with specific fine-tuning support for 12 languages including Arabic, Spanish, German, and Hindi).

For deployment, Llama 4 Scout is designed for accessibility, fitting on a single server-grade GPU via on-the-fly 4-bit or 8-bitint4 quantization, while Maverick is available in BF16 and FP8 formats. These models are released under the custom Llama 4 Community License Agreement, available on the model repositories.

You can find all the original Llama checkpoints under the meta-llama organization.

The Llama 4 family of models comes in two flavors: 109B, and 402B parameters. Both of these flavors are extremely large and won’t fit on your run-of-the-mill device. See below for some examples to reduce the memory usage of the model.

For the download to be faster and more resilient, we recommend installing the `hf_xet` dependency as followed: `pip install transformers[hf_xet]`

The examples below demonstrates how to generate with Pipeline or the AutoModel. We additionally add an example showcasing how to toggle the right attributes to enable very long-context generations, as some flavors of Llama 4 have context lengths going up to 10 million tokens.

Pipeline
AutoModel - Text only
AutoModel - Multimodal
AutoModel - Multimodal with multiple images
AutoModel - Long context

    from transformers import pipeline
    import torch

    model_id = "meta-llama/Llama-4-Scout-17B-16E-Instruct"

    messages = [
        {"role": "user", "content": "what is the recipe of mayonnaise?"},
    ]

    pipe = pipeline(
        "text-generation",
        model=model_id,
        device_map="auto",
        torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16
    )

    output = pipe(messages, do_sample=False, max_new_tokens=200)
    print(output[0]["generated_text"][-1]["content"])

##
Efficiency; how to get the best out of llama 4

###
The Attention methods

Updating the default attention function can significantly improve compute performance as well as memory usage. Refer to the Attention Interface overview for an in-depth explanation of our interface.

As of release, the Llama 4 model supports the following attention methods: `eager`, `flex_attention`, `sdpa`. We recommend using `flex_attention` for best results. Switching attention mechanism is done at the model initialization step:

Flex Attention
SDPA
Eager

Setting Flex Attention ensures the best results with the very long context the model can handle.

Beware: the example below uses both `device_map="auto"` and flex-attention. Please use `torchrun` to run this example in tensor-parallel mode.

We will work to enable running with `device_map="auto"` and flex-attention without tensor-parallel in the future.

    from transformers import Llama4ForConditionalGeneration
    import torch

    model = Llama4ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
        model_id,
        attn_implementation="flex_attention",
        device_map="auto",
        torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    )

###
Quantization

Quantization reduces the memory burden of large models by representing the weights in a lower precision. Refer to the Quantization overview for available quantization backends. At time of release, both FBGEMM and LLM-Compressor are supported; more quantization methods will be supported in the days that follow the release.

See below for examples using both:

Here is an example loading an BF16 model in FP8 using the FBGEMM approach:

FBGEMM
LLM-Compressor

    from transformers import AutoTokenizer, Llama4ForConditionalGeneration, FbgemmFp8Config
    import torch

    model_id = "meta-llama/Llama-4-Scout-17B-16E-Instruct"

    tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)

    messages = [
        {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
    ]
    inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt", return_dict=True)

    model = Llama4ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
        model_id,
        device_map="auto",
        torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
        quantization_config=FbgemmFp8Config()
    )

    outputs = model.generate(**inputs.to(model.device), max_new_tokens=100)
    outputs = tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs[:, inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:])
    print(outputs[0])

###
Offloading

Enabling CPU-offloading means that components of the model might be moved to CPU instead of GPU in case the GPU-memory available isn’t sufficient to load the entire model. At inference, different components will be loaded/unloaded from/to the GPU on the fly. This ensures that the model can be loaded on smaller machines as long as the CPU-memory is sufficient. However, this also slows down inference as it adds communication overhead.

In order to enable CPU-offloading, you simply need to specify the `device_map` to `auto` at model load:

    from transformers import Llama4ForConditionalGeneration
    import torch

    model = Llama4ForConditionalGeneration.from_pretrained(
        model_id,
        device_map="auto",
        torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    )

A `transformers.models.llama4.modeling_llama4.Llama4CausalLMOutputWithPast` or a tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (if `return_dict=False` is passed or when `config.return_dict=False`) comprising various elements depending on the configuration (Llama4Config) and inputs.

- loss (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(1,)`, optional, returned when `labels` is provided) — Language modeling loss (for next-token prediction).

- logits (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, config.vocab_size)`) — Prediction scores of the language modeling head (scores for each vocabulary token before SoftMax).

- past_key_values (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor))`, optional, returned when `use_cache=True` is passed or when `config.use_cache=True`) — Tuple of `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)` of length `config.n_layers`, with each tuple having 2 tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, embed_size_per_head)`)

  Contains pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks) that can be used (see `past_key_values` input) to speed up sequential decoding.

- hidden_states (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, + one for the output of each layer) of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`.

  Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.

- attentions (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional, returned when `output_attentions=True` is passed or when `config.output_attentions=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for each layer) of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, sequence_length)`.

- image_hidden_states (`torch.FloatTensor`, optional) — A `torch.FloatTensor` of size (batch_size, num_images, sequence_length, hidden_size)`. image_hidden_states of the model produced by the vision encoder and after projecting the last hidden state.

labels (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional): Labels for computing the masked language modeling loss. Indices should either be in `[0, ..., config.vocab_size]` or -100 (see `input_ids` docstring). Tokens with indices set to `-100` are ignored (masked), the loss is only computed for the tokens with labels in `[0, ..., config.vocab_size]`.

logits_to_keep (`int` or `torch.Tensor`, optional): If an `int`, compute logits for the last `logits_to_keep` tokens. If `0`, calculate logits for all `input_ids` (special case). Only last token logits are needed for generation, and calculating them only for that token can save memory, which becomes pretty significant for long sequences or large vocabulary size. If a `torch.Tensor`, must be 1D corresponding to the indices to keep in the sequence length dimension. This is useful when using packed tensor format (single dimension for batch and sequence length).

Example:

    >>> from PIL import Image

transformers.modeling_outputs.CausalLMOutputWithPast or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

Parameters

- input_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`) — Indices of input sequence tokens in the vocabulary. Padding will be ignored by default should you provide it.

  Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

  What are input IDs?

- attention_mask (`torch.Tensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional) — Mask to avoid performing attention on padding token indices. Mask values selected in `[0, 1]`:
  - 1 for tokens that are not masked,
  - 0 for tokens that are masked.

  What are attention masks?

  Indices can be obtained using AutoTokenizer. See PreTrainedTokenizer.encode() and PreTrainedTokenizer.call() for details.

  If `past_key_values` is used, optionally only the last `input_ids` have to be input (see `past_key_values`).

  If you want to change padding behavior, you should read `modeling_opt._prepare_decoder_attention_mask` and modify to your needs. See diagram 1 in the paper for more information on the default strategy.

  - 1 indicates the head is not masked,
  - 0 indicates the head is masked.
- position_ids (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional) — Indices of positions of each input sequence tokens in the position embeddings. Selected in the range `[0, config.n_positions - 1]`.

  What are position IDs?

- past_key_values (`Cache` or `tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor))`, optional) — Pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks and in the cross-attention blocks) that can be used to speed up sequential decoding. This typically consists in the `past_key_values` returned by the model at a previous stage of decoding, when `use_cache=True` or `config.use_cache=True`.

  Two formats are allowed:

  - a Cache instance, see our kv cache guide;
  - Tuple of `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)` of length `config.n_layers`, with each tuple having 2 tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, embed_size_per_head)`). This is also known as the legacy cache format.

  The model will output the same cache format that is fed as input. If no `past_key_values` are passed, the legacy cache format will be returned.

  If `past_key_values` are used, the user can optionally input only the last `input_ids` (those that don’t have their past key value states given to this model) of shape `(batch_size, 1)` instead of all `input_ids` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`.

- inputs_embeds (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`, optional) — Optionally, instead of passing `input_ids` you can choose to directly pass an embedded representation. This is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.
- use_cache (`bool`, optional) — If set to `True`, `past_key_values` key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see `past_key_values`).
- output_attentions (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail.
- output_hidden_states (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for more detail.
- return_dict (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple.
- cache_position (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(sequence_length)`, optional) — Indices depicting the position of the input sequence tokens in the sequence. Contrarily to `position_ids`, this tensor is not affected by padding. It is used to update the cache in the correct position and to infer the complete sequence length.
- Args — labels (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional): Labels for computing the masked language modeling loss. Indices should either be in `[0, ..., config.vocab_size]` or -100 (see `input_ids` docstring). Tokens with indices set to `-100` are ignored (masked), the loss is only computed for the tokens with labels in `[0, ..., config.vocab_size]`.

  logits_to_keep (`int` or `torch.Tensor`, optional): If an `int`, compute logits for the last `logits_to_keep` tokens. If `0`, calculate logits for all `input_ids` (special case). Only last token logits are needed for generation, and calculating them only for that token can save memory, which becomes pretty significant for long sequences or large vocabulary size. If a `torch.Tensor`, must be 1D corresponding to the indices to keep in the sequence length dimension. This is useful when using packed tensor format (single dimension for batch and sequence length).

Returns

transformers.modeling_outputs.CausalLMOutputWithPast or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

A transformers.modeling_outputs.CausalLMOutputWithPast or a tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (if `return_dict=False` is passed or when `config.return_dict=False`) comprising various elements depending on the configuration (Llama4Config) and inputs.

- loss (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(1,)`, optional, returned when `labels` is provided) — Language modeling loss (for next-token prediction).

- logits (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, config.vocab_size)`) — Prediction scores of the language modeling head (scores for each vocabulary token before SoftMax).

- past_key_values (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor))`, optional, returned when `use_cache=True` is passed or when `config.use_cache=True`) — Tuple of `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)` of length `config.n_layers`, with each tuple having 2 tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, embed_size_per_head)`)

  Contains pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks) that can be used (see `past_key_values` input) to speed up sequential decoding.

- hidden_states (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, + one for the output of each layer) of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`.

  Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.

- attentions (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional, returned when `output_attentions=True` is passed or when `config.output_attentions=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for each layer) of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, sequence_length)`.

  Attentions weights after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention heads.

The Llama4ForCausalLM forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Example:

    >>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, Llama4ForCausalLM

    >>> model = Llama4ForCausalLM.from_pretrained("meta-llama4/Llama4-2-7b-hf")
    >>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("meta-llama4/Llama4-2-7b-hf")

    >>> prompt = "Hey, are you conscious? Can you talk to me?"
    >>> inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt")

    >>> # Generate
    >>> generate_ids = model.generate(inputs.input_ids, max_length=30)
    >>> tokenizer.batch_decode(generate_ids, skip_special_tokens=True, clean_up_tokenization_spaces=False)[0]

This is useful if you want more control over how to convert `input_ids` indices into associated vectors than the model’s internal embedding lookup matrix.
- use_cache (`bool`, optional) — If set to `True`, `past_key_values` key value states are returned and can be used to speed up decoding (see `past_key_values`).
- output_attentions (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the attentions tensors of all attention layers. See `attentions` under returned tensors for more detail.
- output_hidden_states (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return the hidden states of all layers. See `hidden_states` under returned tensors for more detail.
- return_dict (`bool`, optional) — Whether or not to return a ModelOutput instead of a plain tuple.
- cache_position (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(sequence_length)`, optional) — Indices depicting the position of the input sequence tokens in the sequence. Contrarily to `position_ids`, this tensor is not affected by padding. It is used to update the cache in the correct position and to infer the complete sequence length.
- Args — labels (`torch.LongTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length)`, optional): Labels for computing the masked language modeling loss. Indices should either be in `[0, ..., config.vocab_size]` or -100 (see `input_ids` docstring). Tokens with indices set to `-100` are ignored (masked), the loss is only computed for the tokens with labels in `[0, ..., config.vocab_size]`.

  logits_to_keep (`int` or `torch.Tensor`, optional): If an `int`, compute logits for the last `logits_to_keep` tokens. If `0`, calculate logits for all `input_ids` (special case). Only last token logits are needed for generation, and calculating them only for that token can save memory, which becomes pretty significant for long sequences or large vocabulary size. If a `torch.Tensor`, must be 1D corresponding to the indices to keep in the sequence length dimension. This is useful when using packed tensor format (single dimension for batch and sequence length).

Returns

transformers.modeling_outputs.CausalLMOutputWithPast or `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`

A transformers.modeling_outputs.CausalLMOutputWithPast or a tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (if `return_dict=False` is passed or when `config.return_dict=False`) comprising various elements depending on the configuration (Llama4Config) and inputs.

- loss (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(1,)`, optional, returned when `labels` is provided) — Language modeling loss (for next-token prediction).

- logits (`torch.FloatTensor` of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, config.vocab_size)`) — Prediction scores of the language modeling head (scores for each vocabulary token before SoftMax).

- past_key_values (`tuple(tuple(torch.FloatTensor))`, optional, returned when `use_cache=True` is passed or when `config.use_cache=True`) — Tuple of `tuple(torch.FloatTensor)` of length `config.n_layers`, with each tuple having 2 tensors of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, embed_size_per_head)`)

  Contains pre-computed hidden-states (key and values in the self-attention blocks) that can be used (see `past_key_values` input) to speed up sequential decoding.

- hidden_states (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional, returned when `output_hidden_states=True` is passed or when `config.output_hidden_states=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for the output of the embeddings, if the model has an embedding layer, + one for the output of each layer) of shape `(batch_size, sequence_length, hidden_size)`.

  Hidden-states of the model at the output of each layer plus the optional initial embedding outputs.

- attentions (`tuple(torch.FloatTensor)`, optional, returned when `output_attentions=True` is passed or when `config.output_attentions=True`) — Tuple of `torch.FloatTensor` (one for each layer) of shape `(batch_size, num_heads, sequence_length, sequence_length)`.

  Attentions weights after the attention softmax, used to compute the weighted average in the self-attention heads.

The Llama4ForCausalLM forward method, overrides the `__call__` special method.

Although the recipe for forward pass needs to be defined within this function, one should call the `Module` instance afterwards instead of this since the former takes care of running the pre and post processing steps while the latter silently ignores them.

Example:

    >>> from transformers import AutoTokenizer, Llama4ForCausalLM

    >>> model = Llama4ForCausalLM.from_pretrained("meta-llama4/Llama4-2-7b-hf")
    >>> tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("meta-llama4/Llama4-2-7b-hf")

    >>> prompt = "Hey, are you conscious? Can you talk to me?"
    >>> inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt")

    >>> # Generate
    >>> generate_ids = model.generate(inputs.input_ids, max_length=30)
    >>> tokenizer.batch_decode(generate_ids, skip_special_tokens=True, clean_up_tokenization_spaces=False)[0]
    "Hey, are you conscious? Can you talk to me?\nI'm not conscious, but I can talk to you."
