Meta: LlamaGuard 2 8B

This safeguard model has 8B parameters and is based on the Llama 3 family. Just like is predecessor, LlamaGuard 1, it can do both prompt and response classification. LlamaGuard 2 acts as a normal LLM would, generating text that indicates whether the given input/output is safe/unsafe. If deemed unsafe, it will also share the content categories violated. For best results, please use raw prompt input or the `/completions` endpoint, instead of the chat API. It has demonstrated strong performance compared to leading closed-source models in human evaluations. To read more about the model release, click here.
