🚀 KafkaLM-13B-German-V0.1
KafkaLM 13b is a Llama2 13b model. It has been further pre - trained on a large German dataset from Björn Plüster and LAION, and leo - hessianai-13b was finetuned on an ensemble of popular high - quality open - source instruction sets (translated from English to German). KafkaLM 13b is a Seedbox project trained by Dennis Dickmann.
This model aims to contribute to the German AI community by offering a set of fine - tuned LLMs that are easy to use in daily applications for various tasks. Its main goal is to provide LLMs proficient in German, especially for German - speaking business contexts where English alone is not enough.
Why Kafka? The models are proficient yet creative and have a tendency to linguistically push boundaries 😊

🚀 Quick Start
Inference
Getting started with the model is straightforward. Here is a Python code example to show how to use it:
import transformers
model_id = "seedboxai/KafkaLM-13B-German-V0.1"
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id, load_in_4bit=True, trust_remote_code=True)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
tokenizer.padding_side = "right"
tokenizer.pad_token = tokenizer.unk_token
tokenizer.add_eos_token = False
def generate_prompt(input):
prompt = ''
sys_prompt = "Du bist ein freundlicher und hilfsbereiter KI-Assistent. Du beantwortest Fragen faktenorientiert und präzise, ohne dabei relevante Fakten auszulassen."
prompt += f"<|system|>\n{sys_prompt.strip()}</s>\n"
prompt += f"<|user|>\n{input.strip()}</s>\n"
prompt += f"<|assistant|>\n"
return prompt.strip()
generate_text = transformers.pipeline(
model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer,
return_full_text=True,
task='text-generation',
temperature=0.5,
max_new_tokens=512,
top_p=0.95,
top_k=50,
do_sample=True,
)
print(generate_text(generate_prompt("Wer ist eigentlich dieser Kafka?")))
✨ Features
Model Details
The purpose of releasing the KafkaLM series is to contribute to the German AI community with a set of fine - tuned LLMs that are easy to use in everyday applications across a variety of tasks. The main goal was to provide LLMs proficient in German, especially to be used in German - speaking business contexts where English alone is not sufficient.
Dataset
I used an 8k filtered version of the following seedboxai/multitask_german_examples_32k
Prompt Format
This model follows the subsequent prompt format:
<|system|>
Du bist ein freundlicher und hilfsbereiter KI-Assistent. Du beantwortest Fragen faktenorientiert und präzise, ohne dabei relevante Fakten auszulassen.</s>
<|user|>
Welche Möglichkeiten der energetischen Sanierung habe ich neben Solar und Energiespeicher?</s>
<|assistant|>
