# sinhala-gpt2

This particular model has undergone fine-tuning based on the [gpt2](https://huggingface.co/gpt2) architecture, utilizing a dataset of Sinhala NEWS from various sources.

## Training procedure
The model was trained for 12+ hours on Kaggle GPUs.

## Usage Details

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM,pipeline

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Ransaka/sinhala-gpt2")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("Ransaka/sinhala-gpt2")
generator("දුර")
```
or using git
```bash
git lfs install
git clone https://huggingface.co/Ransaka/sinhala-gpt2
```
