# GPT-Neo 1.3B - Muslim Traveler
## Model Description
GPT-Neo 1.3B-Muslim Traveler is finetuned on EleutherAI's GPT-Neo 1.3B model.
## Training data
The training data consists of travel texts written by ancient muslim travelers. See 'combined.txt' file in the model repository.
### How to use
You can use this model directly with a pipeline for text generation. This example generates a different sequence each time it's run:
```py
>>> from transformers import pipeline
>>> generator = pipeline('text-generation', model='arputtick/GPT_Neo_muslim_travel')
>>> generator("> You wake up.", do_sample=True, min_length=50)
[{'generated_text': '> You wake up"\nYou get out of bed, don your armor and get out of the door in search for new adventures.'}]
```
### Limitations and Biases
GPT-Neo was trained as an autoregressive language model. This means that its core functionality is taking a string of text and predicting the next token. While language models are widely used for tasks other than this, there are a lot of unknowns with this work.
GPT-Neo was trained on the Pile, a dataset known to contain profanity, lewd, and otherwise abrasive language. Depending on your usecase GPT-Neo may produce socially unacceptable text. See Sections 5 and 6 of the Pile paper for a more detailed analysis of the biases in the Pile.
As with all language models, it is hard to predict in advance how GPT-Neo will respond to particular prompts and offensive content may occur without warning. We recommend having a human curate or filter the outputs before releasing them, both to censor undesirable content and to improve the quality of the results. 
### BibTeX entry and citation info
