Libraries

How to use HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# pip install -U transformers accelerate
# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM-1.7B-Instruct", device_map="auto")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=256)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

This PR adds the sampling settings recommended in the model card (temperature 0.2, top-p 0.9) to generation_config.json, so that transformers and vLLM pick them up by default.

It also raises max_new_tokens from 40 to 512, since 40 tokens cuts off most replies mid-sentence. Removing it entirely isn't an option, because generate() would then fall back to transformers' default of 20 new tokens.

This is the same change as https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM-135M-Instruct/discussions/15
