Falcon E 3B Instruct

Falcon E 3B Instruct is the larger Falcon Edge model for English text. It is a transformer trained for ternary weights and is available in several forms for inference and further training.

Choose the appropriate weight form

The model card documents BitNet, prequantized and bfloat16 variants. Fine-tuning uses the prequantized revision with onebitllms. Its configuration has 32 layers and a hidden width of 2,048. This differs from ordinary post-training quantization of a generic 3B checkpoint.Falcon-E-3B-Instruct model cardFalcon-E-3B-Instruct configuration

Measure the local workflow

Practical guidance. Use the same hardware and input lengths when comparing the 1B and 3B Edge releases. Check whether the application is limited by loading, prompt processing or token generation. Each stage can affect a local user's experience differently.
