Olmo-3

Model Details

Model Card for Olmo 3 7B Instruct

We introduce Olmo 3, a new family of 7B and 32B models both Instruct and Think variants. Long chain-of-thought thinking improves reasoning tasks like math and coding.

Olmo is a series of Open language models designed to enable the science of language models. These models are pre-trained on the Dolma 3 dataset and post-trained on the Dolci datasets. We are releasing all code, checkpoints, logs (coming soon), and associated training details.

The core models released in this batch include the following:

Installation

Olmo 3 is supported in transformers 4.57.0 or higher:

pip install transformers>=4.57.0

Inference

You can use OLMo with the standard HuggingFace transformers library:

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
olmo = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("allenai/Olmo-3-7B-Instruct")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("allenai/Olmo-3-7B-Instruct")
message = [{"role": "user", "content": "Who would win in a fight - a dinosaur or a cow named Moo Moo?"}]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(message, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors='pt', return_dict=True)
# optional verifying cuda
# inputs = {k: v.to('cuda') for k,v in inputs.items()}
# olmo = olmo.to('cuda')
response = olmo.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=100, do_sample=True, top_k=50, top_p=0.95)
print(tokenizer.decode(response[0][inputs.input_ids.shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True))
>> 'This is a fun and imaginative question! Let’s break it down...'

For faster performance, you can quantize the model using the following method:

AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("allenai/Olmo-3-7B-Instruct",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    load_in_8bit=True)  # Requires bitsandbytes

The quantized model is more sensitive to data types and CUDA operations. To avoid potential issues, it's recommended to pass the inputs directly to CUDA using:

inputs.input_ids.to('cuda')

We have released checkpoints for these models. For post-training, the naming convention is step_XXXX.

To load a specific model revision with HuggingFace, simply add the argument revision:

olmo = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("allenai/Olmo-3-7B-Instruct", revision="step_300")

Or, you can access all the revisions for the models via the following code snippet:

from huggingface_hub import list_repo_refs
out = list_repo_refs("allenai/Olmo-3-7B-Instruct")
branches = [b.name for b in out.branches]
