## Falcon3-7B-Instruct-Heretic-v2

A decensored version of [Falcon3-7B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/Falcon3-7B-Instruct), made using [Heretic](https://github.com/p-e-w/heretic) v1.1.0

An improved version of [Falcon3-7B-Instruct-Heretic](https://huggingface.co/ChiKoi7/Falcon3-7B-Instruct-Heretic) featuring less refusals but retaining near identical KL divergence.

Quantized/GGUF versions available at [ChiKoi7/Falcon3-7B-Instruct-Heretic-v2-GGUF](https://huggingface.co/ChiKoi7/Falcon3-7B-Instruct-Heretic-v2-GGUF)

# Falcon3-7B-Instruct

**Falcon3** family of Open Foundation Models is a set of pretrained and instruct LLMs ranging from 1B to 10B.

This repository contains the **Falcon3-7B-Instruct**. It achieves state of art results (at the time of release) on reasoning, language understanding, instruction following, code and mathematics tasks.
Falcon3-7B-Instruct supports 4 languages (english, french, spanish, portuguese) and a context length up to 32K.

## Model Details

  - 28 decoder blocks
  - Grouped query attention (GQA) for faster inference: 12 query heads and 4 key value heads
  - Wider head dimension: 256
  - High RoPE value to support long context understanding: 1000042
  - Uses SwiGLU and RMSNorm
  - 32K context length
  - 131K vocab size
- Pretrained on 14 Teratokens of datasets comprising of web, code, STEM, high quality and mutlilingual data using 1024 H100 GPU chips

```python

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_name = "tiiuae/Falcon3-7B-Instruct"

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name,
    torch_dtype="auto",
    device_map="auto"
)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)

prompt = "How many hours in one day?"
messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful friendly assistant Falcon3 from TII, try to follow instructions as much as possible."},
    {"role": "user", "content": prompt}
]
text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    tokenize=False,
    add_generation_prompt=True
)
model_inputs = tokenizer([text], return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

generated_ids = model.generate(
    **model_inputs,
    max_new_tokens=1024
)
generated_ids = [
    output_ids[len(input_ids):] for input_ids, output_ids in zip(model_inputs.input_ids, generated_ids)
]

response = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
print(response)

Also, we report in the following table our internal pipeline benchmarks.
 - We use [lm-evaluation harness](https://github.com/EleutherAI/lm-evaluation-harness).
 - We report **raw scores** obtained by applying chat template and fewshot_as_multiturn.
 - We use same batch-size across all models.
