Camel 🐪 5B

Model Description

Introducing Camel-5b, a state-of-the-art instruction-following large language model designed to deliver exceptional performance and versatility. Derived from the foundational architecture of Palmyra-Base, Camel-5b is specifically tailored to address the growing demand for advanced natural language processing and comprehension capabilities.

The Camel-5b model is meticulously trained on an extensive dataset of approximately 70,000 instruction-response records. These records are generated by our dedicated Writer Linguist team, who possess considerable expertise in language modeling and fine-tuning techniques. By leveraging their skills and knowledge, the Camel-5b model is primed to offer unparalleled proficiency in understanding and executing language-based instructions.

One of the key differentiators of Camel-5b lies in its ability to process complex instructions and generate accurate, contextually appropriate responses. This makes it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications, including virtual assistants, customer support, content generation, and more. Additionally, the model's comprehensive training enables it to adapt and perform well under varying conditions and contexts, further expanding its potential use cases.

Deploying Camel

We used the Baseten platform to package and serve Camel-5B at scale. Utilizing the open source Truss model packaging framework, users can create a customized environment using the simple instructions found on GitHub. This repo allows users to maintain full control over the inference and deployment paths to meet their specific requirements. We would like to thank the Baseten team for their contributions in deploying and hosting the model.

Usage :

import torch
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

model_name = "Writer/camel-5b-hf"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name,
    device_map="auto",
    torch_dtype=torch.float16
)

instruction = "Describe a futuristic device that revolutionizes space travel."


PROMPT_DICT = {
    "prompt_input": (
        "Below is an instruction that describes a task, paired with an input that provides further context. "
        "Write a response that appropriately completes the request\n\n"
        "### Instruction:\n{instruction}\n\n### Input:\n{input}\n\n### Response:"
    ),
    "prompt_no_input": (
        "Below is an instruction that describes a task. "
        "Write a response that appropriately completes the request.\n\n"
        "### Instruction:\n{instruction}\n\n### Response:"
    ),
}

text = (
    PROMPT_DICT["prompt_no_input"].format(instruction=instruction)
    if not input
    else PROMPT_DICT["prompt_input"].format(instruction=instruction, input=input)
)

model_inputs = tokenizer(text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
output_ids = model.generate(
    **model_inputs,
    max_length=256,
)
output_text = tokenizer.batch_decode(output_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
clean_output = output_text.split("### Response:")[1].strip()

print(clean_output)

Limitations and Biases

Camel's core functionality is to take a string of text and predict the next token. While language models are widely used for other tasks, there are many unknowns in this work. When prompting Camel, keep in mind that the next statistically likely token is not always the token that produces the most "accurate" text. Never rely on Camel to produce factually correct results.

Camel was trained on Writer’s custom data. As with all language models, it is difficult to predict how Camel will respond to specific prompts, and offensive content may appear unexpectedly. We recommend that the outputs be curated or filtered by humans before they are released, both to censor undesirable content and to improve the quality of the results.

Camel VS. Llama

The Camel is essentially the Swiss Army knife of the animal kingdom - it can store water in its humps, survive extreme temperatures, and even provide a cushy ride for weary travelers. The llama, on the other hand, is basically just a glorified lawnmower with an attitude problem. Sure, they might have a cute, fuzzy face, but don't be deceived - one false move and you'll be greeted with a spit shower. The true MVP of the desert, and let the llama keep on spitting its way into obscurity.
