starchat-beta
261
The starchat-beta model is a 16B parameter GPT-like language model that has been fine-tuned on an "uncensored" variant of the openassistant-guanaco dataset by HuggingFaceH4. This fine-tuning process removed the in-built alignment of the OpenAssistant dataset, which the maintainers found boosted performance on the Open LLM Leaderboard and made the model more helpful at coding tasks. However, this also means the model is likely to generate problematic text when prompted, and should only be used for educational and research purposes. Similar models released by HuggingFaceH4 include the starchat2-15b-v0.1 and the starchat-alpha models, which also aim to serve as helpful coding assistants but with various differences in dataset, scale, and alignment approaches. Model inputs and outputs Inputs Text prompts**: The starchat-beta model accepts text prompts as input, which it can use to generate responses. Outputs Generated text**: The model outputs generated text, which can include code snippets, responses to queries, and other text. Capabilities The starchat-beta model is designed to act as a helpful coding assistant, with the ability to generate code in over 80 programming languages. It can be used to assist with a variety of coding-related tasks, such as explaining programming concepts, generating sample code, and providing suggestions for code improvements. What can I use it for? The starchat-beta model can be a useful tool for educational and research purposes, particularly in the context of exploring the capabilities of large language models in coding tasks. Developers and researchers may find the model helpful for prototyping ideas, testing hypotheses, or exploring the limits of current AI-powered coding assistance. However, due to the "uncensored" nature of the dataset used for fine-tuning, the model may also generate problematic or harmful content when prompted. As such, it should be used with caution and only for non-commercial, educational, and research purposes. Things to try One interesting aspect of the starchat-beta model is its ability to generate code in a wide range of programming languages. You could try providing prompts that ask the model to write code in various languages, and observe how the generated output varies. Additionally, you could experiment with different prompting strategies to see how the model responds, such as asking it to explain coding concepts or to provide suggestions for improving existing code snippets.

starchat-alpha
229
starchat-alpha is a language model developed by HuggingFaceH4 that is fine-tuned from the bigcode/starcoderbase model to act as a helpful coding assistant. It is the first in a series of "StarChat" models, and as an alpha release, is intended only for educational or research purposes. The model has not been aligned to human preferences using techniques like Reinforcement Learning from Human Feedback (RLHF), so it may generate problematic content, especially if prompted to do so. In contrast, the starchat2-15b-v0.1 model is a later version in the series that has been fine-tuned using Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) and Debate-Preference Optimization (DPO) on a mix of synthetic datasets. It achieves stronger performance on chat and programming benchmarks compared to starchat-alpha. The Starling-LM-7B-alpha and Starling-LM-7B-beta models are also fine-tuned language models, but they use Reinforcement Learning from AI Feedback (RLAIF) and Preference Learning (PPO) techniques to improve helpfulness and safety. Model inputs and outputs Inputs Natural language prompts**: The model can accept natural language prompts, such as questions or instructions, that are related to programming tasks. Outputs Code snippets**: The model can generate code snippets in response to programming-related prompts. Natural language responses**: The model can also provide natural language responses to explain or clarify its code outputs. Capabilities starchat-alpha can generate code snippets in a variety of programming languages based on the provided prompts. It demonstrates strong capabilities in areas like syntax generation, algorithm implementation, and software engineering best practices. However, the model's outputs may contain bugs, security vulnerabilities, or other issues, as it has not been thoroughly aligned to ensure safety and reliability. What can I use it for? starchat-alpha can be used for educational and research purposes to explore the capabilities of open-source language models in the programming domain. Developers and researchers can experiment with the model to gain insights into its strengths and limitations, and potentially use it as a starting point for further fine-tuning or research into more robust and reliable coding assistants. Things to try One interesting aspect of starchat-alpha is its tendency to generate false URLs. Users should carefully inspect any URLs produced by the model before clicking on them, as they may lead to unintended or potentially harmful destinations. Experimenting with prompts that test the model's URL generation capabilities could yield valuable insights into its limitations and potential risks. Additionally, users could try prompting the model to generate code for specific programming tasks or challenges, and then evaluate the quality, correctness, and security of the resulting code snippets. This could help identify areas where the model performs well, as well as areas where further refinement or alignment is needed.
