Usage

python

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
from peft import PeftModel
import torch

# Load base model
base_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    "meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B",
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="auto"
)

# Load LoRA adapter
model = PeftModel.from_pretrained(base_model, "anonymousML123/llama3-8b-pku-CITA-NoInstruct-DPO-NoInstruct")

# Load tokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("anonymousML123/llama3-8b-pku-CITA-NoInstruct-DPO-NoInstruct")

# Generate
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing"}]
input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")

with torch.no_grad():
    outputs = model.generate(input_ids, max_new_tokens=128, temperature=0.7)

print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))

Intended Use

Primary Use: Safety-aligned conversational AI
Recommended: Instruction following with harm refusal capabilities
Not Recommended: Medical/legal advice, factual knowledge (use base Llama-3.1 for general tasks)

Limitations

Fine-tuned on English-only safety dataset (PKU-SafeRLHF)
May refuse benign requests if phrased similarly to harmful prompts
LoRA adapter only - requires base Llama-3.1-8B for inference

License

Llama 3.1 Community License (same as base model)
