What is EXAONE-3.5-7.8B-Instruct?

OMW evidence review3 Oct 2026

Open Model Weights records EXAONE-3.5-7.8B-Instruct as a 7.81845B-parameter text open-weight model in the EXAONE-3.5 family, with LGAI-EXAONE listed as the developer. The checked source repository provides 8 recognized weight artifacts, format evidence for Safetensors and a verified context window of 32,768 tokens. Values that are not evidenced in the checked sources remain explicitly undisclosed or unknown.

The repository declares exaone. Commercial-use status requires manual review. Open Model Weights reports the checked license evidence and classification; this is not legal advice.

No base model is declared in the checked standard lineage metadata, so Open Model Weights does not infer one. A training recipe and standard training-data disclosure were not found by the current verifier.

Weight memory, without pretending it is a deployment guarantee.

These bars visualize weight-only decimal-GB estimates. They exclude KV cache, activations, runtime overhead, optimizer state and sharding.

LINEAGE & PROVENANCE

What the checked sources disclose — and what they do not.

Open Model Weights does not infer a hidden base model or training corpus when the checked sources do not declare one.

RUNTIME SIGNALS

Compatibility claims stay attached to their evidence level.

Declared and model-card-mentioned runtimes are discovery signals. They are not treated as Open Model Weights runtime tests unless explicitly measured.

Continue through structurally related records.

Family matches are preferred; otherwise the fallback requires the same developer, model modality and declared pipeline task. No quality score or recommendation rank is used.

No close related record is exposed by the current family, developer and task fields.
