# ClimateGPT 7B FSC

<blockquote style="padding: 10px; margin: 0 0 10px; border-left: 5px solid #ddd;">
⚠️ This is a research experiment to explore training from scratch on climate related data. If you're just interested in using the model, we recommend to use the Llama 2 based [ClimateGPT 7B](https://huggingface.co/eci-io/climategpt-7b).
</blockquote>

ClimateGPT is an ensemble of AI models designed to augment human decisions on the fast-moving field of climate change.
ClimateGPT 7B FSB (from scratch climate) is a 7 billion transformer decoder model that was pre-trained for 319.5B tokens including a collection of 4.2B tokens from curated climate documents.
The model is further instruction fine-tuned on a dataset of instruction-completion pairs manually collected by AppTek in cooperation with climate scientists.
[ClimateGPT 7B](https://huggingface.co/eci-io/climategpt-7b) outperforms Llama 2 70B Chat on our climate-specific benchmarks.
The model is designed to be used together with retrieval augmentation to extend the knowledge, and increase the factuality of the model and with cascaded machine translation to increase the language coverage.

## Uses
- This is an experimental model and it is only intended to be used to reproduce our results and for LLM research. For any other use-case, we recommend to use [ClimateGPT 7B](https://huggingface.co/eci-io/climategpt-7b), [13B](https://huggingface.co/eci-io/climategpt-13b) or [70B](https://huggingface.co/eci-io/climategpt-70b)
- **Despite the efforts from the development team to eliminate them, as every other chat-capable LLMs, this model may generate biased, offensive or inaccurate responses.**

## Downstream Use

ClimateGPT 7B FSC is an instruction-tuned model that can be directly used for climate-specific question-answering applications.
It was trained to perform well with retrieval augmentation and supports up to 5 references in context.

The model was trained using ChatML so the following format should be followed when prompting, including the  `<|im_start|>`, `<|im_end|>` tags, `system`, `user`, `context` and `assistant` identifiers and `[[0]]`, `[[1]]]` etc. tokens to indicate references.
    
    """
    <|im_start|>system
    {system_message}<|im_end|>
    <|im_start|>user
    {prompt}<|im_end|>
    <|im_start|>context
    [[0]] "{reference1_title}", {reference1_year}
    {reference1_text}
    [[1]] "{reference2_title}", {reference2_year}
    {reference2_text}
    [...]<|im_end|>
    <|im_start|>assistant
    """

## Training
- Details on the pre-training data with climate focus are given in our paper.
- For instruction fine-tuning, about 272K instruction-completion pairs (both in the climate domain but also general domain) are used.
