Instructions to use nvidia/Nemotron-Labs-Diffusion-3B with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use nvidia/Nemotron-Labs-Diffusion-3B with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="nvidia/Nemotron-Labs-Diffusion-3B", trust_remote_code=True)
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoModel
model = AutoModel.from_pretrained("nvidia/Nemotron-Labs-Diffusion-3B", trust_remote_code=True, dtype="auto")

			{
				"role": "user",
				"content": "What is the capital of France?"
			}
		]
	}'

Use Docker

docker model run hf.co/nvidia/Nemotron-Labs-Diffusion-3B
