Nvidia announces open Llama Nemotron family of models

At GTC, Nvidia (NVDA) announced the open Llama Nemotron family of models with reasoning capabilities. “Built on Llama models, the NVIDIA Llama Nemotron reasoning family delivers on-demand AI reasoning capabilities. NVIDIA enhanced the new reasoning model family during post-training to improve multistep math, coding, reasoning and complex decision-making. This refinement process boosts accuracy of the models by up to 20% compared with the base model and optimizes inference speed by 5x compared with other leading open reasoning models. The improvements in inference performance mean the models can handle more complex reasoning tasks, enhance decision-making capabilities and reduce operational costs for enterprises,” the company stated. Agent AI platform “pioneers,” including Accenture (ACN), Amdocs (DOX), Atlassian (TEAM), Box (BOX), Cadence (CDNS), CrowdStrike (CRWD), Deloitte, IQVIA (IQV), Microsoft (MSFT), SAP (SAP) and ServiceNow (NOW), are collaborating with Nvidia on its new reasoning models and software, the company stated.
