## What Is Solar LLM: The Backbone of Safe AI

SOLAR LLM stands at the forefront of innovation in AI technology, offering a robust solution to the challenges that have long plagued conventional LLMs, such as data privacy breaches and the generation of inappropriate content. Inspired by the structure of our solar system, SOLAR LLM features a central general knowledge model surrounded by domain-specific models, each protected by layers of safety and privacy enforcement mechanisms. This unique architecture ensures that every interaction across the network adheres to the highest standards of content integrity and confidentiality.

In order to ensure the safe and privacy-focused use of LLMs, it is important to consider incorporating these features into the framework itself, rather than relying on custom solutions that may be difficult to maintain. This will help to ensure that AI applications are able to effectively and efficiently enforce content safety and protect user data.

**Core Components of SOLAR LLM:**

- General Knowledge LLM (The Sun): A comprehensive model that serves as the core of the cognitive network, offering broad knowledge across a wide array of topics.
- Domain-Specific Models (The Planets): Specialized LLMs that provide expert knowledge in specific fields, ensuring accurate and relevant responses.
- Safety and Privacy Enforcement Layers: Critical safeguards that monitor and filter content, ensuring compliance with privacy standards and content appropriateness.

## How Solar LLM works?
To utilize the SOLAR network for AI applications, implement the following guidelines:

1. Define the SOLAR network's policy framework to delineate acceptable and unacceptable content. This step ensures compliance with safety standards across all generated content.
2. Implement data protection measures to identify and mitigate potential data risks. This includes setting up mechanisms for the automatic anonymization of detected personally identifiable information (PII).
3. Engage with the SOLAR network using the client moderation and query technique, akin to making a standard chat API request.
4. Upon receipt of a user query, the data privacy mechanism will scrutinize the text for any PII. If PII is found, users will be prompted to modify their inquiry to enhance safety.
5. If the query is deemed safe and meets content guidelines, the cognitive routing system will analyze the query to deduce its topic or intent. This enables the system to assign the query to an appropriate LLM model specializing in the relevant domain.
6. The cognitive routing system further enhances response quality by employing a self-review mechanism. It does this by generating responses from multiple models to the same query and then cross-evaluating these responses. This process fosters a meticulously reviewed and consolidated response, leveraging insights from various domain-specific models.

By following these steps, you can effectively use the SOLAR network to enforce content safety and data privacy, while still allowing for the rapid expansion of knowledge. This will help to ensure that your AI applications are safe, private, and able to provide high-quality responses to user queries.

**Approach to Implementation**
The primary objective in developing the implementation strategy was to construct a centralized intelligence, or "system-brain," for the PAVAI suite, focusing on the Vocei and Talkie applications. These solutions are designed to function seamlessly across both offline and distributed environments, drawing inspiration from the dynamics of a solar system.

To realize this vision, a flexible and innovative method was adopted, leveraging a range of open-source AI and Large Language Model (LLM) technologies. This approach facilitated the creation of a resilient and scalable framework capable of adapting to the evolving requirements of the Vocei and Talkie applications. Utilizing these pre-existing models enabled the swift and effective assembly of a system-brain for PAVAI, equipped to deliver precise answers to user inquiries, regardless of the operating mode.

The implementation of the SOLAR cognitive network is encapsulated within a Python library, alongside the Data Security Engine, which, although initially integrated, is planned for future transition to an API-based solution.

For ensuring content safety, LLamaGuard was chosen - a cutting-edge model from Meta, subject to access permissions. To optimize resource use, a quarantined GGUF file version was acquired from HF.

Zerphy was selected as the general-purpose LLM for its refined adaptation of Mistral and its superior multilingual capabilities. Additionally, Mistral-8x7b-instruct-v0.1 was evaluated, offering satisfactory performance albeit with reduced responsiveness due to its larger size.

In terms of Multimodal support, both LLava-1.5–7B and Bakllava1 were tested, demonstrating adequate functionality.

Support for Function Calling and Self-Critique was integrated through a specific model trained for function invocation, implemented on a Llama.cpp Python server.

Furthermore, a variety of machine learning models were employed for topic modeling and the classification of content intent.
This outlines the framework in its operational state, highlighting the strategic choices and integrations made in the actual implementation.

Here's how it looks like in the actual implementation:
