# llama3-discolm-orca

is a merge of the following models
* [Locutusque/llama-3-neural-chat-v1-8b](https://huggingface.co/Locutusque/llama-3-neural-chat-v1-8b)
* [Locutusque/Llama-3-Orca-1.0-8B](https://huggingface.co/Locutusque/Llama-3-Orca-1.0-8B)
* [DiscoResearch/Llama3_DiscoLM_German_8b_v0.1_experimental](https://huggingface.co/DiscoResearch/Llama3_DiscoLM_German_8b_v0.1_experimental)

This was mostly a proof of concept test. GGUF 4k quants here: [cstr/llama3-discolm-orca-GGUF](https://huggingface.co/cstr/llama3-discolm-orca-GGUF)

```

## 💻 Usage

```python
!pip install -qU transformers accelerate

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
import transformers
import torch

model = "cstr/llama3-discolm-orpo-t2"
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "What is a large language model?"}]

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model)
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
pipeline = transformers.pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    device_map="auto",
)

outputs = pipeline(prompt, max_new_tokens=256, do_sample=True, temperature=0.7, top_k=50, top_p=0.95)
print(outputs[0]["generated_text"])
```
