# Qwen2.5-32B-Instruct

> Use NeMo AutoModel to fine-tune Qwen2.5-32B-Instruct for LLM workflows with checked-in text generation recipes and documented distributed settings.

[Qwen2.5-32B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen2.5-32B-Instruct) has a checked-in NeMo AutoModel recipe for text generation.
The Hugging Face configuration declares the `Qwen2ForCausalLM` architecture.

## Fine-Tune Qwen2.5-32B-Instruct

Follow the [installation instructions](/get-started/installation), then run the recipe from the repository root:

```bash
automodel examples/llm_finetune/qwen/qwen2_5_32b_peft_benchmark.yaml --nproc-per-node 8
```
