Llama 4 Scout 17B 16E

NVIDIA
Llama-4-Scout-17B-16E is a natively multimodal mixture-of-experts (MoE) large language model built for advanced text and image understanding. It activates 17B parameters (109B total) across 16 experts and is built on a 48-layer transformer architecture with 40 attention heads and a 5,120 hidden size. The model supports multilingual text and image inputs and generates multilingual text and code outputs. With a 10M token context window, it is optimized for long-context reasoning, large-scale document analysis, and production-ready multimodal AI deployments.
