Capabilities added for business tasks

The instruction-tuned release supports function calls, structured JSON output and responses grounded in supplied text. Its card lists nine supported languages, including Arabic and Hebrew.AI21-Jamba-Mini-1.5 official model card

Quantizing experts changes the hardware requirement

AI21's ExpertsInt8 instructions describe running Mini 1.5 on one 80 GB GPU. The card also describes a two-GPU setup for its full-context example.AI21-Jamba-Mini-1.5 official model card

Practical guidance. These are specific configurations. Account for input length, batch size and non-weight memory instead of treating a GPU count as a universal requirement.

Bedrock access is limited to its legacy period

Amazon Bedrock lists this model in us-east-1 as Legacy from 26 May 2026, with end of life on 26 November 2026. New customers cannot adopt Legacy models; continued access is subject to AWS rules.Amazon Bedrock lifecycle dates for legacy models

AI21's own dated endpoint was deprecated earlier. The public weight repository has a separate lifecycle.AI21 Jamba versions, aliases and API deprecations
