Summary

Phi-3 Medium (14B) is Microsoft’s open instruction model for substantial capability under constrained compute and latency budgets. The model card distinguishes 4K and 128K variants. The long-context 128K checkpoint uses synthetic and filtered public data followed by SFT and DPO, described as targeting code, mathematics, logic, and instruction following.

The large window distinguishes the 128K variant from the short Phi-3 configuration. The model card describes this instruction-tuned checkpoint for broad English commercial and research use.

Vendor-reported result. Microsoft reports the same internal evaluation pipeline for all compared models. Evaluation uses the per-row few-shot count, temperature 0, and no Phi-3-specific prompt, example, or format optimization.
Context
The model card gives neither per-task sample sizes nor confidence intervals or an immutable benchmark-code revision. The read card was on the current main path, not an accessible commit pin.
