Model Detail
dolphin-2.9-llama3-8b
—dolphin-2.9-llama3-8b is a code generation model with 8B parameters released by dphn. The model is registered under the text-generation pipeline tag on Hugging Face.
Open-LLM-Leaderboard scoring places it at MMLU-Pro 20, GPQA 5, IFEval 39, BBH 28, giving a sense of how it handles instruction following, reasoning, and graduate-level QA in absolute terms.
dolphin-2.9-llama3-8b ships as a LlamaForCausalLM / 💬 chat models (RLHF, DPO, IFT, ...) architecture with 8B parameters.
dolphin-2.9-llama3-8b is best fit for code completion, repository-scale Q&A, and pair-programming integrations. It is a less obvious choice for one-shot generation of security-critical code without review. Treat this as a starting matrix rather than a benchmark verdict — the right deployment usually depends on the specific evaluation suite that mirrors your workload.
