# Mixtral-8x7B-v0.1

> Use Mixtral-8x7B-v0.1 with NeMo AutoModel for language model fine-tuning, with documented checkpoints, runnable recipes, setup guidance, and model reference details.

[Mixtral](https://mistral.ai/news/mixtral-of-experts/) is Mistral AI's Mixture-of-Experts model series. Each token is processed by a subset of experts, enabling a large total parameter count with efficient per-token compute.

Set up NeMo AutoModel with the [latest container](https://catalog.ngc.nvidia.com/orgs/nvidia/containers/nemo-automodel) or follow the [installation instructions](/get-started/installation).

## Fine-Tune Mixtral-8x7B-v0.1

From the repository root, run:

```bash
uv run automodel --nproc-per-node=8 examples/llm_finetune/mistral/mixtral-8x7b-v0-1_squad.yaml
```
