Model overview

The dbrx-instruct-4bit model is a text-to-text AI model created by the mlx-community. It was converted from the original databricks/dbrx-instruct model using the mlx-lm tool. This model is a Mixture-of-Experts (MoE) large language model trained by Databricks, and is an instruction-following variant of their base dbrx-base model. Compared to similar MoE models like Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-4bit and Mixtral-8x22B-4bit, the dbrx-instruct-4bit model uses a fine-grained MoE architecture with more, smaller experts to improve quality.

Model inputs and outputs

The dbrx-instruct-4bit model is a text-to-text model, meaning it takes text-based inputs and produces text-based outputs. It can accept context lengths up to 32,768 tokens.

Inputs

  • Text-based prompts and instructions

Outputs

  • Text-based responses and completions

Capabilities

The dbrx-instruct-4bit model has been fine-tuned on a large, diverse dataset to specialize in few-turn interactions and instruction-following tasks. It demonstrates strong performance on a wide range of language understanding, reasoning, and problem-solving benchmarks.

What can I use it for?

The dbrx-instruct-4bit model is a general-purpose, open-source language model that can be used for a variety of natural language processing tasks. Some potential use cases include:

The mlx-community/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-4bit model is a quantized version of the meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct model. The original model was developed and released by Meta as part of the Llama 3 family of large language models (LLMs). Llama 3 models are optimized for dialogue use cases and outperform many open-source chat models on common industry benchmarks. The Llama 3 models use supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) to align the models with human preferences for helpfulness and safety. The 8B parameter size version of the Llama 3 model is well-suited for applications that require a smaller, faster model. It maintains strong performance across a variety of tasks while being more efficient than the larger 70B parameter version. The mlx-community/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-4bit model further optimizes the 8B model by quantizing it to 4-bit precision, reducing the model size and inference time while preserving much of the original model's capabilities. Model inputs and outputs Inputs Text data: The model takes text as input and generates text in response. Outputs Text generation: The model outputs generated text, which can be used for a variety of natural language processing tasks such as chatbots, content creation, and question answering. Capabilities The mlx-community/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-4bit model is capable of a wide range of text-to-text tasks. It can engage in open-ended dialogue, answer questions, summarize text, and even generate creative content like stories and poems. The model has been trained on a diverse dataset and can draw upon broad knowledge to provide informative and coherent responses. What can I use it for? The mlx-community/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-4bit model can be useful for a variety of applications, including: Chatbots and virtual assistants: The model's conversational abilities make it well-suited for building chatbots and virtual assistants that can engage in natural dialogue. Content creation: The model can be used to generate text for blog posts, articles, scripts, and other creative writing projects. Question answering: The model can be used to build systems that can answer questions on a wide range of topics. Summarization: The model can be used to generate concise summaries of longer text passages. Things to try One interesting aspect of the mlx-community/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-4bit model is its ability to follow instructions and adapt its output to the specified context. By providing a clear system prompt, you can get the model to respond in different personas or styles, such as a pirate chatbot or a creative writing assistant. Experimenting with different system prompts can unlock new capabilities and use cases for the model. Another interesting area to explore is the model's performance on specialized tasks or domains. While the model has been trained on a broad dataset, it may be possible to further fine-tune it on domain-specific data to enhance its capabilities in areas like technical writing, legal analysis, or scientific research.

dbrx-instruct is a 132 billion parameter mixture-of-experts (MoE) large language model developed by Databricks. It uses a fine-grained MoE architecture with 16 experts, choosing 4 on any given input, which provides 65x more possible expert combinations compared to other open MoE models like Mixtral-8x7B and Grok-1. This allows dbrx-instruct to achieve higher quality outputs than those models. dbrx-instruct was pretrained on 12 trillion tokens of carefully curated data, which Databricks estimates is at least 2x better token-for-token than the data used to pretrain the MPT family of models. It uses techniques like curriculum learning, rotary position encodings, gated linear units, and grouped query attention to further improve performance. Model inputs and outputs Inputs dbrx-instruct only accepts text-based inputs and accepts a context length of up to 32,768 tokens. Outputs dbrx-instruct only produces text-based outputs. Capabilities dbrx-instruct exhibits strong few-turn interaction capabilities, thanks to its fine-grained MoE architecture. It can engage in natural conversations, answer questions, and complete a variety of text-based tasks with high quality. What can I use it for? dbrx-instruct can be used for any natural language generation task where a high-performance, open-source model is needed. This could include building conversational assistants, question-answering systems, text summarization tools, and more. The model's broad capabilities make it a versatile choice for many AI and ML applications. Things to try One interesting aspect of dbrx-instruct is its ability to handle long-form inputs and outputs effectively, thanks to its large context window of 32,768 tokens. This makes it well-suited for tasks that require processing and generating longer pieces of text, such as summarizing research papers or engaging in multi-turn dialogues. Developers may want to experiment with pushing the boundaries of what the model can do in terms of the length and complexity of the inputs and outputs.
