🚀 Virtuoso-Medium-v2 (32B)
Virtuoso-Medium-v2 (32B) is our next - generation, 32 - billion - parameter language model. It builds upon the original Virtuoso - Medium architecture, distilled from Deepseek - v3 with an expanded dataset of 5B+ tokens worth of logits. It outperforms our previous release in benchmark scores and surpasses Arcee - Nova 2024 in certain tasks.
🚀 Quick Start
Below is a sample code snippet using transformers
:
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
model_name = "arcee-ai/Virtuoso-Medium-v2"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name)
prompt = "Provide a concise summary of quantum entanglement."
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=150)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
✨ Features
- High - Performance Benchmark Scores: Achieves higher scores than previous releases and surpasses Arcee - Nova 2024 in certain tasks.

Background on Deepseek Distillation
Deepseek - v3 serves as the teacher model. Instead of standard supervised fine - tuning, we apply full logit - level replication, which ensures more precise knowledge transference, including advanced reasoning in technical and scientific queries, complex code generation, and mathematical problem - solving.
Intended Use Cases
- Advanced Chatbots & Virtual Assistants
- Enterprise Data Analysis & Workflow Automation
- Research Simulations & Natural Language Understanding
- Educational Tools for STEM Fields
Evaluations
Training & Fine - Tuning
- Initial Training: Started with Qwen - 32B, calibrated for large - scale text ingestion.
- Distillation & Merging: Trained on ~1.1B tokens worth of Deepseek - v3 logits. Employed “fusion merging” to retain teacher expertise. Final step included DPO to improve alignment and reduce model hallucinations.
- Continuous Development: Additional R1 distillations are in progress to enhance performance and specialization.
Performance
Thanks to a larger parameter count and a richer training corpus, Virtuoso - Medium - v2 delivers high scores across multiple benchmarks (BBH, MMLU - PRO, MATH, etc.). It often outperforms other 30B+ models and some 70B+ architectures in specific tasks.
Limitations
- Context Length: 128k Tokens
- Knowledge Cut - off: Training data may not reflect the latest events or developments after June 2024.
Ethical Considerations
⚠️ Important Note
Like any language model, Virtuoso - Medium - v2 can potentially generate harmful or biased content if prompted in certain ways.
