# Tulu 65B

This model is a 65B LLaMa model finetuned on a mixture of instruction datasets (FLAN V2, CoT, Dolly, Open Assistant 1, GPT4-Alpaca, Code-Alpaca, and ShareGPT).
*Please note this is a model diff - see below for usage instructions*.

This was trained as part of the paper [How Far Can Camels Go? Exploring the State of Instruction Tuning on Open Resources](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.04751).
The codebase used to train and evaluate this model can be found at [https://github.com/allenai/open-instruct](https://github.com/allenai/open-instruct).

**This is the strongest overall model trained as part of this project!**

This model is licensed under the AI model license given in LICENSE.txt along with the original Llama license (llama_license.txt).

## Usage

We assume you have access to a LLaMa model in HF format already. You can find details on getting access and converting the model here:
[https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/model_doc/llama](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/main/model_doc/llama)

Clone [https://github.com/allenai/open-instruct](https://github.com/allenai/open-instruct) and install the required dependencies, or just copy `scripts/weight_diff.py`
and install the minimal requirements listed in `weight-diff-requirements.txt`. Then download or clone this model diff to the same machine.

Then, run:
```bash
python scripts/weight_diff.py recover --path_raw ${hf_llama_path} --path_tuned ${output_path} --path_diff ${diff_location}
```

And you will have a recovered model! Note this takes up a decent amount of RAM, especially for the larger models.

## Input Format

The model is trained to use the following format (note the newlines):
```
<|user|>
Your message here!
<|assistant|>
```

For best results, format all inputs in this manner. **Make sure to include a newline after `<|assistant|>`, this can affect generation quality quite a bit.**

## Performance

Here is the performance of this model across benchmarks explored in our paper [How Far Can Camels Go? Exploring the State of Instruction Tuning on Open Resources](https://arxiv.org/abs/2306.04751):
