# LLaMA
An example of generating text with LLaMA using MLX.
LLaMA is a set of open source language models from Meta AI Research[^1] ranging from 7B to 65B parameters.
### Setup
Install the dependencies:
```
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
Next, download and convert the model. If you do not have access to the model
weights you will need to [request
access](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfqNECQnMkycAp2jP4Z9TFX0cGR4uf7b_fBxjY_OjhJILlKGA/viewform)
from Meta.
Convert the weights with:
```
python convert.py <path_to_torch_weights> mlx_llama_weights.npz
```
### Run
Once you've converted the weights to MLX format, you can interact with the
LLaMA model:
```
python llama.py mlx_llama.npz tokenizer.model "hello"
```
Run `python llama.py --help` for more details.
