Learn how to reduce model latency when deploying Meta* Llama 3 on CPUs

The much-anticipated release of Meta’s third-generation batch of Llama is here, and I want to ensure you know how to deploy this state-of-the-art (SoTA) LLM optimally. In this tutorial, we will focus on performing weight-only-quantization (WOQ) to compress the 8B parameter model and improve inference latency, but first, let’s discuss Meta Llama 3.
