Model Usage
Experience the capabilities of the FinanceConnect model through a well-structured Python interface. To kick-start your exploration, follow the steps and snippets given below:
Prerequisites
1. Ensure required packages are available
import torch
from typing import Any, Dict
from transformers import (
AutoModelForCausalLM,
AutoTokenizer,
BitsAndBytesConfig,
HfArgumentParser,
TrainingArguments,
PreTrainedTokenizerFast,
pipeline,
logging,
)
import time
2. Initiate the model and tokenizer
model_name = "ceadar-ie/FinanceConnect-13B"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name, torch_dtype=torch.float16, load_in_8bit = True, device_map = "auto", trust_remote_code=True)
3. Create a function for generating text
def generate_text(input_text):
tokenizer.padding_side = "right"
num_words_input = len(input_text.split())
start_time = time.time()
pipe = pipeline(task="text-generation", model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer, max_length = 1000)
prompt = f"<s>[INST] {input_text} [/INST]"
#prompt = input_text
result = pipe(prompt)
generated_text = result[0]['generated_text'].replace(prompt, "").strip()
end_time = time.time()
time_taken = end_time - start_time
num_words_generated = len(generated_text.split())
print("Generated Output:")
print(generated_text)
print('=' * 60 )
print("\nNumber of Words in Input Text:", num_words_input)
print("Number of Words in Generated Output:", num_words_generated)
print("Time Taken to Generate Output: {:.2f} seconds".format(time_taken))
Example Evaluation and Use
Example Prompt 1:
List in detail ten key factors influencing the current state of the global economy.
Generated Output:
The current state of the global economy is influenced by several factors, including:
- Globalization: The increasing interconnectedness of economies through trade, investment, and the movement of people.
- Technological advancements: The rapid pace of technological innovation and its impact on industries and jobs.
- Political factors: Government policies and decisions that affect economic growth and stability.
- Demographics: Changes in population demographics, such as aging populations and youth bulges, can impact economic growth and stability.
- Environmental factors: Climate change, natural disasters, and other environmental factors can disrupt economic activity and impact growth.
- International trade: The rise of protectionism and trade tensions between countries can impact economic growth and stability.
- Financial factors: The performance of financial markets and the availability of credit can impact economic growth and stability.
- Infrastructure: The availability and quality of infrastructure, such as transportation and communication networks, can impact economic growth and stability.
- Education: The availability and quality of education can impact economic growth and stability by influencing the supply of skilled workers and the ability of countries to adapt to changing economic conditions.
- Health: The availability and quality of healthcare can impact economic growth and stability by influencing the productivity of the workforce and the ability of countries to attract and retain talent.
Example Prompt 2:
Explain the concept of quantitative easing and its impact on financial markets.
Generated Output:
Quantitative easing is a monetary policy tool used by central banks to stimulate economic growth and combat inflation. It involves the purchase of assets such as government bonds, mortgage-backed securities, and corporate bonds by a central bank. This increases the amount of money in circulation, lowers interest rates, and encourages banks to lend more, which can boost economic growth. However, quantitative easing can also lead to inflation if it is not implemented carefully, as it can cause prices to rise more than wages can keep up with.
Example Prompt 3:
I've recently started working and want to manage my finances. Give me a detailed answer in 10 points on how do I set up a budget?
Generated Output:
Setting up a budget can help manage finances and save money. Here are some tips:
- Determine your income and expenses.
- Create a budget that includes all necessary expenses, such as rent, utilities, and groceries.
- Set aside a portion of your income for savings and investments.
- Monitor your spending regularly and adjust your budget as needed.
- Use cash or debit cards instead of credit cards to avoid overspending.
- Cut back on unnecessary expenses, such as eating out or subscriptions.
- Consider using a budgeting app or tool to help track your spending.
- Prioritize your spending based on your financial goals.
- Review your budget regularly and make adjustments as needed.
- Be flexible and willing to make changes to your budget as your financial situation changes.

Model Limitations
Out-of-Scope Use
FinanceConnect is specifically tailored for finanical discussions and knowledge. It is not optimized for:
- General conversations.
- Domain-specific tasks outside financial tasks.
- Direct interfacing with physical devices or applications.
Bias, Risks, and Limitations
- Dataset Biases: The FinTalk-19k and Alpaca dataset may contain inherent biases that influence the model's outputs.
- Over-reliance: The model is an aid, not a replacement for human expertise. Decisions should be made with careful consideration.
- Content Understanding: The model lacks human-like understanding and cannot judge the veracity of knowledge.
- Language Limitations: The model's primary language is English. Performance may decrease with other languages.
- Knowledge Cut-off: The model may not be aware of events or trends post its last training update.
