Motif 3: Technical Report
Quick summary
arXiv:2608.09119v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We introduce Motif 3, a decoder-only Mixture-of-Experts language model with 314 billion total parameters and 13.2 billion activated per token. Each sparse MoE layer contains 384 routed experts, with eight selected per token. This fine-grained sparsity provides substantial expert capacity while limiting computation. Motif 3 is built around Grouped Differential Latent Attention (GDLA), which integrates grouped differential attention with the compressed key-value representation of Multi-head Latent Attention. The architecture further incorporates mo

Why it matters
This model development creates a new option for users and a new testing obligation for developers. A fixed evaluation set comparing quality, cost and failure behavior is more useful than launch claims.
