Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B-Instruct is a large language model customized by NVIDIA to improve the helpfulness of LLM generated responses to user queries.
This model reaches Arena Hard of 85.0, AlpacaEval 2 LC of 57.6 and GPT-4-Turbo MT-Bench of 8.98, which are known to be predictive of LMSys Chatbot Arena Elo
As of 1 Oct 2024, this model is #1 on all three automatic alignment benchmarks (verified tab for AlpacaEval 2 LC), edging out strong frontier models such as GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 Sonnet.
As of Oct 24th, 2024 the model has Elo Score of 1267(+-7), rank 9 and style controlled rank of 26 on ChatBot Arena leaderboard.
This model was trained using RLHF (specifically, REINFORCE), Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B-Reward and HelpSteer2-Preference prompts on a Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct model as the initial policy.
Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B-Instruct-HF has been converted from Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B-Instruct to support it in the HuggingFace Transformers codebase. Please note that evaluation results might be slightly different from the Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B-Instruct as evaluated in NeMo-Aligner, which the evaluation results below are based on.

See details on our paper at https://arxiv.org/abs/2410.01257 - as a preview, this model can correctly the question How many r in strawberry? without specialized prompting or additional reasoning tokens:
A sweet question!
Let’s count the “R”s in “strawberry”:
1. S
2. T
3. R
4. A
5. W
6. B
7. E
8. R
9. R
10. Y
There are **3 “R”s** in the word “strawberry”.
Note: This model is a demonstration of our techniques for improving helpfulness in general-domain instruction following. It has not been tuned for performance in specialized domains such as math.

This model can be deployed efficiently on vLLM, Red Hat Enterprise Linux AI, and Openshift AI, as shown in the example below.
Deploy on vLLM
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
model_id = "RedHatAI/Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B-Instruct-HF"
number_gpus = 4
sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.7, top_p=0.8, max_tokens=256)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
prompt = "Give me a short introduction to large language model."
llm = LLM(model=model_id, tensor_parallel_size=number_gpus)
outputs = llm.generate(prompt, sampling_params)
generated_text = outputs[0].outputs[0].text
print(generated_text)
vLLM also supports OpenAI-compatible serving. See the documentation for more details.

You can use the model using HuggingFace Transformers library with 2 or more 80GB GPUs (NVIDIA Ampere or newer) with at least 150GB of free disk space to accomodate the download.
This code has been tested on Transformers v4.44.0, torch v2.4.0 and 2 A100 80GB GPUs, but any setup that supports meta-llama/Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct should support this model as well. If you run into problems, you can consider doing pip install -U transformers.
