Llama-3.1-Tulu-3

Tülu 3 is a leading instruction following model family, offering a post-training package with fully open-source data, code, and recipes designed to serve as a comprehensive guide for modern techniques. This is one step of a bigger process to training fully open-source models, like our OLMo models. Tülu 3 is designed for state-of-the-art performance on a diversity of tasks in addition to chat, such as MATH, GSM8K, and IFEval.

Model Family

Using the model

Loading with HuggingFace

To load the model with HuggingFace, use the following snippet:

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM

tulu_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("allenai/Llama-3.1-Tulu-3-8B")

VLLM

As a Llama base model, the model can be easily served with:

vllm serve allenai/Llama-3.1-Tulu-3-8B

Note that given the long chat template of Llama, you may want to use --max_model_len=8192.

Chat template

The chat template for our models is formatted as:

Or with new lines expanded:

How are you doing?
I'm just a computer program, so I don't have feelings, but I'm functioning as expected. How can I assist you today?

It is embedded within the tokenizer as well, for tokenizer.apply_chat_template.

System prompt

In Ai2 demos, we use this system prompt by default:

You are Tulu 3, a helpful and harmless AI Assistant built by the Allen Institute for AI.

The model has not been trained with a specific system prompt in mind.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

The Tülu3 models have limited safety training, but are not deployed automatically with in-the-loop filtering of responses like ChatGPT, so the model can produce problematic outputs (especially when prompted to do so). It is also unknown what the size and composition of the corpus was used to train the base Llama 3.1 models, however it is likely to have included a mix of Web data and technical sources like books and code. See the Falcon 180B model card for an example of this.
