Finetuning Overview:

Model Used: meta-llama/Llama-2-70b-hf
Dataset: Databricks-dolly-15k

Dataset Insights:

The Databricks-dolly-15k dataset is an impressive compilation of over 15,000 records, made possible by the hard work and dedication of a multitude of Databricks professionals. It has been tailored to:

• Elevate the interactive capabilities of ChatGPT-like systems.
• Provide prompt/response pairs spanning eight distinct instruction categories, inclusive of the seven categories from the InstructGPT paper and an exploratory open-ended category.
• Ensure genuine and original content, largely offline-sourced with exceptions for Wikipedia in particular categories, and free from generative AI influences.

The contributors had the opportunity to rephrase and answer queries from their peers, highlighting a focus on accuracy and clarity. Additionally, some data subsets feature Wikipedia-sourced reference texts, marked by bracketed citation numbers like [42].
