Nemotron-SEA-LION-v4.8-120B-A12B

Nemotron-SEA-LION-v4.8-120B-A12B is the larger v4.8 instruction model. It starts from AI Singapore's 120B-A12B base release and uses supervised fine-tuning with online on-policy distillation. Its Mamba2-Transformer hybrid design uses mixture-of-experts routing.

How this release works

The card lists English and seven regional languages: Burmese, Indonesian, Filipino, Malay, Tamil, Thai and Vietnamese. Training uses a subset of SEA-Instruct-2602. The release uses the tokenizer associated with NVIDIA Nemotron 3 Super 120B-A12B.Nemotron-SEA-LION-v4.8-120B-A12B official model card

How to assess it for your work

Practical guidance. Use this model in a comparison where the smaller release misses relationships across several passages or fails a multi-step instruction. Judge the resulting answer against the supplied evidence. A larger model is useful only when its additional resource demand produces a measurable improvement in your own task.
