# Maestrale chat alpha ༄
By @efederici and @mferraretto
## Model description
- **Language Model**: Mistral-7b for the Italian language, continued pre-training for Italian on a curated large-scale high-quality corpus.
- **Fine-Tuning**: SFT performed on convs/instructions for two epochs.
**v0.3**
- Function calling
- Reduced default system prompt to avoid wasting tokens (pre-alignment)
This model uses ChatML prompt format:
```
<|im_start|>system
Sei un assistente utile.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
{prompt}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
```
## Usage:
```python
from transformers import (
AutoTokenizer,
AutoModelForCausalLM,
GenerationConfig,
TextStreamer
)
import torch
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("mii-llm/maestrale-chat-v0.3-alpha")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("mii-llm/maestrale-chat-v0.3-alpha", load_in_8bit=True, device_map="auto")
gen = GenerationConfig(
do_sample=True,
temperature=0.7,
repetition_penalty=1.2,
top_k=50,
top_p=0.95,
max_new_tokens=500,
pad_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id,
eos_token_id=tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("<|im_end|>")
)
messages = [
{"role": "system", "content": "Sei un assistente utile."},
{"role": "user", "content": "{prompt}"}
]
with torch.no_grad(), torch.backends.cuda.sdp_kernel(
enable_flash=True,
enable_math=False,
enable_mem_efficient=False
):
temp = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
inputs = tokenizer(temp, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
streamer = TextStreamer(tokenizer, skip_prompt=True)
_ = model.generate(
**inputs,
streamer=streamer,
generation_config=gen
)
```
## Intended uses & limitations
It's an alpha version, it's not `aligned`. It's a first test. We are working on alignment data and evals.
