## Quick Start You can use the model using HuggingFace Transformers library with 2 or more 80GB GPUs (NVIDIA Ampere or newer) with at least 150GB of free disk space to accomodate the download. This code has been tested on Transformers v4.45.0, torch v2.3.0a0+40ec155e58.nv24.3 and 2 A100 80GB GPUs, but any setup that supports meta-llama/Llama-3.1-70B-Instruct should support this model as well. If you run into problems, you can consider doing pip install -U transformers. ```python import torch from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer model_name = "nvidia/Llama-3.3-Nemotron-70B-Feedback" model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, device_map="auto") tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name) def generate_feedback(messages, model, tokenizer, temperature=0.7): tokenized_message = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=True, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt", return_dict=True) response_token_ids = model.generate(tokenized_message['input_ids'].cuda(),attention_mask=tokenized_message['attention_mask'].cuda(), max_new_tokens=128, pad_token_id = tokenizer.eos_token_id, num_return_sequences=1, temperature=temperature) generated_tokens =response_token_ids[:, len(tokenized_message['input_ids'][0]):] generated_text = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_tokens, skip_special_tokens=True) return generated_text prompt = "What is the distance between the Earth and the Sun?" response = "The distance from Earth to the Sun is 93 million miles" messages = [ {"role": "user", "content": prompt}, {"role": "assistant", "content": response}, {"role": "user", "content": "Evaluate the response to the previous prompt in terms of how helpful it is overall. Start the evaluation with the statement - The response is {not / slightly / partially / mostly / perfectly} helpful. Then provide a brief explanation of the evaluation in 2 to 10 sentences."} ] feedback = generate_feedback(messages, model, tokenizer, temperature=0.7) print(feedback) ## Illustrative example - feedback generated might not be identical since temperature sampling is used # The response is partially helpful. It provides a concise answer to the prompt. However, the lack of additional information or context limits its usefulness. It could have been more informative by including the average distance in astronomical units (AU) and explaining the variation in distance due to the elliptical orbit. ``` ## Model Version: v1.0 # Training and Testing Datasets: ## Training Datasets: **Dataset Name:** HelpSteer3 **Dataset Link:** https://huggingface.co/datasets/nvidia/HelpSteer3 **Data Collection Method by dataset**

## Limitations: The model was trained on data that contains toxic language, unsafe content, and societal biases originally crawled from the internet. Therefore, the model may amplify those biases and return toxic responses especially when prompted with toxic prompts. The model may generate answers that may be inaccurate, omit key information, or include irrelevant or redundant text producing socially unacceptable or undesirable text, even if the prompt itself does not include anything explicitly offensive. ## Ethical Considerations: NVIDIA believes Trustworthy AI is a shared responsibility and we have established policies and practices to enable development for a wide array of AI applications. When downloaded or used in accordance with our terms of service, developers should work with their supporting model team to ensure this model meets requirements for the relevant industry and use case and addresses unforeseen product misuse.
