Trinity-Large-Preview-FP8-Block

Introduction

Trinity-Large-Preview is a 398B-parameter sparse Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) model with approximately 13B active parameters per token. It is the largest model in Arcee AI's Trinity family, trained on more than 17 trillion tokens and delivering frontier-level performance with strong long-context comprehension. Trinity-Large-Preview is a lightly post-trained model based on Trinity-Large-Base.

This repository contains the FP8 block-quantized weights of Trinity-Large-Preview (FP8 weights and activations with per-block scaling).

Usage

Running our model

Inference tested on

  • 8x NVIDIA H100 80GB (tensor parallel = 8)
  • vLLM 0.18.0+

VLLM

Supported in VLLM release 0.18.0+ with DeepGEMM FP8 MoE acceleration.

# pip
pip install "vllm>=0.18.0"

Serving the model with DeepGEMM enabled:

VLLM_USE_DEEP_GEMM=1 vllm serve arcee-ai/Trinity-Large-Preview-FP8-Block \
  --trust-remote-code \
  --tensor-parallel-size 8 \
  --enable-auto-tool-choice \
  --tool-call-parser hermes

Serving without DeepGEMM (falls back to CUTLASS/Triton):

vllm serve arcee-ai/Trinity-Large-Preview-FP8-Block \
  --trust-remote-code \
  --tensor-parallel-size 8 \
  --enable-auto-tool-choice \
  --tool-call-parser hermes

Transformers

Use the main transformers branch or pass trust_remote_code=True with a released version.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
import torch

model_id = "arcee-ai/Trinity-Large-Preview-FP8-Block"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    device_map="auto",
    trust_remote_code=True
)

messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]

input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    add_generation_prompt=True,
    return_tensors="pt"
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(
    input_ids,
    max_new_tokens=256,
    do_sample=True,
    temperature=0.8,
    top_k=50,
    top_p=0.8
)

response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)
