# Use

## Intended use

The model follows instructions provided in the input. You should always preface your input with "Question: " and finish it with "Answer:", for example: "Question: Please write a function in Python that performs bubble sort.

Answer:"

**Feel free to share your generations in the Community tab!**

## Generation
```python
# pip install -q transformers
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

checkpoint = "bigcode/astraios-fft"
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(checkpoint)
device = "cuda" # for GPU usage or "cpu" for CPU usage

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(checkpoint)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(checkpoint).to(device)

inputs = tokenizer.encode("Question: Please write a function in Python that performs bubble sort.

Answer:", return_tensors="pt").to(device)
outputs = model.generate(inputs)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
```
