Hi @graceMkal This issue sounds similar: [404 to any API i tried - #6 by meganariley](https://discuss.huggingface.co/t/404-to-any-api-i-tried/161937/6).

[meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct · Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct) is available to use with many great inference providers like Together AI, Featherless AI, Hyperbolic, and Novita. Check out our documentation on Inference Providers for more info: [Inference Providers](https://huggingface.co/docs/inference-providers/en/index).

Another option is using this model with [Inference Endpoints](https://huggingface.co/docs/inference-endpoints/index) instead.
