Libraries

How to use dsba-lab/llama3-8b-instruct-alienlm-ratio-80 with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="dsba-lab/llama3-8b-instruct-alienlm-ratio-80")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("dsba-lab/llama3-8b-instruct-alienlm-ratio-80")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("dsba-lab/llama3-8b-instruct-alienlm-ratio-80")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

Llama 3 8B Instruct AlienLM Ratio 80

This repository contains the Llama 3 8B Instruct AlienLM Ratio 80 weights used in the AlienLM experiments. AlienLM is a client-side text obfuscation approach for black-box LLM APIs: it maps natural text into an alienized token space, adapts the model with AAT, and recovers text on the client side.
