What is Nemotron Nano 9B?

Key information about Nemotron Nano 9B and its available data.

NVIDIA-Nemotron-Nano-9B-v2 is a large language model (LLM) trained from scratch by NVIDIA, and designed as a unified model for both reasoning and non-reasoning tasks. It responds to user queries and tasks by first generating a reasoning trace and then concluding with a final response.

The model's reasoning capabilities can be controlled via a system prompt. If the user prefers the model to provide its final answer without intermediate reasoning traces, it can be configured to do so, albeit with a slight decrease in accuracy for harder prompts that require reasoning.

Conversely, allowing the model to generate reasoning traces first generally results in higher-quality final solutions to queries and tasks.
