Well, I liked the premise of GALACTICA models because they are trained on scientific texts. Intuitively, The models they should be the model of choice when it comes to scientific tasks. Although the weights of the original model are available, they are raw binary files, and this repository converts them into safetensors.
I have not trained, nor fine-tuned the existing model weights provided by GALACTICA and this repository in no way attempts to take the credit away from Ross Taylor and team who contributed towards GALACTICA. This repository just exists as a personal snapshot of the model in a different tensor format for faster computations and downstream model building exercises.
