Typhoon 7b

🚀 Typhoon-7B: Thai Large Language Model (Pretrained)

Typhoon-7B is a pretrained Thai 🇹🇭 large language model with 7 billion parameters, based on Mistral-7B. It outperforms all open - source Thai language models at the time of writing, as evaluated on Thai examination benchmarks. Its instruction - tuned variant achieves the best results in instruction - following tasks. Also, its performance in Thai is on par with GPT - 3.5 while being 2.62 times more efficient in tokenizing Thai text.

This is not an instruction - tuned model - It may not be able to follow human instructions without using one/few - shot learning or instruction fine - tuning. The model does not have any moderation mechanisms and may generate harmful or inappropriate responses.

The Instruct model (chat - model) will be released soon. The beta version register is open at https://opentyphoon.ai/ or follow us for future model release https://twitter.com/opentyphoon.

⚠️ Important Note

This is not an instruction - tuned model. It may not follow human instructions without one/few - shot learning or instruction fine - tuning. Also, the model has no moderation mechanisms and may generate harmful or inappropriate responses.

💡 Usage Tip

For better performance in following instructions, consider using one/few - shot learning or instruction fine - tuning.
