Vicuna 7B 1.1 HF

This is an HF version of the Vicuna 7B 1.1 model.

It was created by merging the deltas provided in the above repo with the original Llama 7B model, using the code provided on their Github page.

Thanks, and how to contribute.

Thanks to the chirper.ai team!

I've had a lot of people ask if they can contribute. I enjoy providing models and helping people, and would love to be able to spend even more time doing it, as well as expanding into new projects like fine tuning/training.

If you're able and willing to contribute it will be most gratefully received and will help me to keep providing more models, and to start work on new AI projects.

Donaters will get priority support on any and all AI/LLM/model questions and requests, access to a private Discord room, plus other benefits.

Model details

Model type: Vicuna is an open-source chatbot trained by fine-tuning LLaMA on user-shared conversations collected from ShareGPT. It is an auto-regressive language model, based on the transformer architecture.

Model date: Vicuna was trained between March 2023 and April 2023.

Organizations developing the model: The Vicuna team with members from UC Berkeley, CMU, Stanford, and UC San Diego.

Where to send questions or comments about the model: https://github.com/lm-sys/FastChat/issues

Intended use

Primary intended uses: The primary use of Vicuna is research on large language models and chatbots.

Primary intended users: The primary intended users of the model are researchers and hobbyists in natural language processing, machine learning, and artificial intelligence.

Training dataset

70K conversations collected from ShareGPT.com.

Evaluation dataset

A preliminary evaluation of the model quality is conducted by creating a set of 80 diverse questions and utilizing GPT-4 to judge the model outputs. See https://vicuna.lmsys.org/ for more details.

Major updates of weights v1.1

• Refactor the tokenization and separator. In Vicuna v1.1, the separator has been changed from "###" to the EOS token "</s>". This change makes it easier to determine the generation stop criteria and enables better compatibility with other libraries.
• Fix the supervised fine-tuning loss computation for better model quality.
