NVIDIA Alpamayo 1 is an open 10B-parameter reasoning vision-language-action (VLA) model for autonomous vehicles that pairs driving trajectory prediction with Chain-of-Causation reasoning. This repository provides setup, inference, and fine-tuning (SFT and RL) code, with future development moved to the Alpamayo Recipes hub.

Use cases

  • run a reasoning VLA model for autonomous driving trajectory prediction
  • generate chain-of-causation explanations for driving decisions
  • fine-tune a driving model with supervised fine-tuning
  • post-train a driving policy with reinforcement learning
  • research end-to-end self-driving with vision-language-action models
  • evaluate world models for physical AI driving tasks

When to choose

  • you need an open reasoning VLA model for autonomous driving research
  • you want trajectory prediction paired with causal reasoning traces
  • you need a base model for SFT or RL post-training on driving data

When to avoid

  • you need the latest features and active support - use the newer Alpamayo Recipes repository
  • you need a production-ready self-driving stack rather than a research model
  • you lack the GPU hardware required for a 10B-parameter model
