# Devstral-Small-2-24B-Instruct-2512

> Use NeMo AutoModel to fine-tune Devstral-Small-2-24B-Instruct-2512 for LLM workflows with checked-in text generation recipes and documented distributed settings.

[Devstral-Small-2-24B-Instruct-2512](https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Devstral-Small-2-24B-Instruct-2512) has a checked-in NeMo AutoModel recipe for text generation.
The Hugging Face configuration declares the `Mistral3ForConditionalGeneration` architecture.
