Wizardlm 2 8x22B

by Microsoft

WizardLM-2 8x22B is an open-weight Mixture-of-Experts language model built on the Mixtral 8x22B architecture, released by Microsoft in April 2024. It uses 8 experts with 2 activated per token, achieving strong performance across instruction-following, multilingual tasks, reasoning, and agentic use cases. The model supports a 65,535 token context window and, per the official release, demonstrates highly competitive performance relative to leading proprietary models while outperforming existing open-source models at its scale. It is well-suited to chat, multilingual reasoning, code generation, and multi-step problem-solving. With its Mixture-of-Experts architecture, WizardLM-2 8x22B balances computational efficiency and capability for production deployment. The model is open-weight and available on Hugging Face, enabling integration into custom applications and fine-tuning.
