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.

Usage:

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.

python

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
model_name = "nvidia/Llama-3.1-Nemotron-70B-Instruct-HF"
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, device_map="auto")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)

prompt = "How many r in strawberry?"
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]

tokenized_message = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=True, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt", return_dict=True)
response_token_ids = model.generate(tokenized_message['input_ids'].cuda(),attention_mask=tokenized_message['attention_mask'].cuda(),  max_new_tokens=4096, pad_token_id = tokenizer.eos_token_id)
generated_tokens =response_token_ids[:, len(tokenized_message['input_ids'][0]):]
generated_text = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_tokens, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
print(generated_text)
