Supported foundation models
IBM® watsonx™ Assistant supports a diverse range of AI models for the capabilities within the product. For each model listed, you can learn more about their details so you can choose the model that fits your business needs.
Each model contains the reference for its Model card where you can get more information about technical specifications of the model.
Find information such as the supported languages, latest updates, and training data for the models available in their model card.
Foundation model lifecycle
As new versions of IBM foundation models are introduced, older versions are deprecated. Similarly, as newer and more effective models from other providers become available, less useful models are removed.
For more information on deprecated or withdrawn models, see Deprecated or withdrawn models.
granite-13b-chat-v2
Withdrawn
The Granite 13 Billion chat V2 (granite-13b-chat-v2
) model is the chat-focused variant initialized from the pre-trained Granite Base 13 Billion Base V2 (granite-13b-base-v2
) model. granite-13b-base-v2
has
been trained using over 2.5T tokens. IBM Generative AI Large Language Foundation Models are Enterprise-level English-language models trained with a large volume of data that has been subjected to intensive pre-processing and careful analysis.
Usage:
- Question answering
- Summarization
- Retrieval-Augmented Generation
- Classification
- Generation
- Extraction
