# Model Card: Nous-Hermes-Llama2-7b |
|
|
|
Compute provided by our project sponsor Redmond AI, thank you! Follow RedmondAI on Twitter @RedmondAI. |
|
|
|
## Model Description |
|
|
|
Nous-Hermes-Llama2-7b is a state-of-the-art language model fine-tuned on over 300,000 instructions. This model was fine-tuned by Nous Research, with Teknium leading the fine tuning process and dataset curation, Redmond AI sponsoring the compute, and several other contributors. |
|
|
|
This Hermes model uses the exact same dataset as Hermes on Llama-1. This is to ensure consistency between the old Hermes and new, for anyone who wanted to keep Hermes as similar to the old one, just more capable. |
|
|
|
This model stands out for its long responses, lower hallucination rate, and absence of OpenAI censorship mechanisms. The fine-tuning process was performed with a 4096 sequence length on an 8x a100 80GB DGX machine. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Model Training |
|
|
|
The model was trained almost entirely on synthetic GPT-4 outputs. Curating high quality GPT-4 datasets enables incredibly high quality in knowledge, task completion, and style. |
|
|
|
This includes data from diverse sources such as GPTeacher, the general, roleplay v1&2, code instruct datasets, Nous Instruct & PDACTL (unpublished), and several others, detailed further below |
|
|
|
## Collaborators |
|
The model fine-tuning and the datasets were a collaboration of efforts and resources between Teknium, Karan4D, Emozilla, Huemin Art, and Redmond AI. |
|
|
|
Special mention goes to @winglian for assisting in some of the training issues. |
|
|
|
Huge shoutout and acknowledgement is deserved for all the dataset creators who generously share their datasets openly. |

## Resources for Applied Use Cases: |
|
For an example of a back and forth chatbot using huggingface transformers and discord, check out: https://github.com/teknium1/alpaca-discord |
|
For an example of a roleplaying discord chatbot, check out this: https://github.com/teknium1/alpaca-roleplay-discordbot |
|
|
|
LM Studio is a good choice for a chat interface that supports GGML versions (to come) |
|
|
|
## Future Plans |
|
We plan to continue to iterate on both more high quality data, and new data filtering techniques to eliminate lower quality data going forward. |
|
|
|
## Model Usage |
|
The model is available for download on Hugging Face. It is suitable for a wide range of language tasks, from generating creative text to understanding and following complex instructions. |
