Smaug-Llama-3-70B-Instruct

Built with Meta Llama 3

This model was built using a new Smaug recipe for improving performance on real world multi-turn conversations applied to meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct.

The model outperforms Llama-3-70B-Instruct substantially, and is on par with GPT-4-Turbo, on MT-Bench (see below).

EDIT: Smaug-Llama-3-70B-Instruct is the top open source model on Arena-Hard currently! It is also nearly on par with Claude Opus - see below.

We are conducting additional benchmark evaluations and will add those when available.

Model Description

• Developed by: Abacus.AI
• License: https://llama.meta.com/llama3/license/
• Finetuned from model: meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct.

How to use

The prompt format is unchanged from Llama 3 70B Instruct.

Use with transformers

See the snippet below for usage with Transformers:

import transformers
import torch

model_id = "abacusai/Smaug-Llama-3-70B-Instruct"

pipeline = transformers.pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model_id,
    model_kwargs={"torch_dtype": torch.bfloat16},
    device_map="auto",
)

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a pirate chatbot who always responds in pirate speak!"},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]

prompt = pipeline.tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
        messages, 
        tokenize=False, 
        add_generation_prompt=True
)

terminators = [
    pipeline.tokenizer.eos_token_id,
    pipeline.tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("<|eot_id|>")
]

outputs = pipeline(
    prompt,
    max_new_tokens=256,
    eos_token_id=terminators,
    do_sample=True,
    temperature=0.6,
    top_p=0.9,
)
print(outputs[0]["generated_text"][len(prompt):])

Evaluation

Score vs selected others (sourced from: (https://lmsys.org/blog/2024-04-19-arena-hard/#full-leaderboard-with-gpt-4-turbo-as-judge)). GPT-4o and Gemini-1.5-pro-latest were missing from the original blob post, and we produced those numbers from a local run using the same methodology.

This version of Smaug uses new techniques and new data compared to Smaug-72B, and more information will be released later on. For now, see the previous Smaug paper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2402.13228.
