Where it's used

Hugging Face does not say who downloads a model or with what. These are the proxies: API providers listing it, quantized builds, fine-tunes/adapters/merges, and Spaces that load it.

No API provider serves it, so its downloads are people running it themselves: 47 quantized builds and 69 Spaces.

Will it fit?

Weights only, an estimate: leave room for the KV cache. Method

Fits a 16 GB card at INT4

About 5.3 GB at INT4, 11 GB at FP8, 21 GB at BF16: weights only, so leave room for the KV cache.

The story so far

Weights, every dated article, and repo commits on one rail.

17 repo commits since the weights landed

Teal is the weights (2025-01-13), grey ticks are repo commits.

What the card says

1 cited sentence

Summary generated, cited

InternLM3-8B-Instruct is an 8.80B parameter instruction model designed for general-purpose usage and advanced reasoning.[1][2]

  1. parameters human
  2. “designed for general-purpose usage and advanced reasoning”

Generated 2026-10-07 15:15 UTC by parasail-gemma-4-26b-a4b-it; each numeral points at the fact it rests on. Not a verdict.

Use-case evidence

6 use cases

What it is good at 6 use cases

Labels are evidence, not verdicts: measured a third-party leaderboard row for this model; author-reported a number the model author published in the card or eval files; structural a deterministic signal from the name, config or chat template, or a decision-model estimate. Each chip links to its source. All use cases.
