Instructions to use Blackroot/Llama-3-LongStory with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use Blackroot/Llama-3-LongStory with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="Blackroot/Llama-3-LongStory")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Blackroot/Llama-3-LongStory")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("Blackroot/Llama-3-LongStory", device_map="auto")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

8B FP 16 weights

Prompt format is the same as Llama 3: https://llama.meta.com/docs/model-cards-and-prompt-formats/meta-llama-3/ Standard context length of 8192

This model was trained on 100MB of long form stories for 8 epochs. This model was designed to do two tasks, continue a story given a summary of the previous events, and write 3k-8k length stories from a single prompt.

The dataset was constructed from cleaned long form dialogue, restructured, and then summarized with Llama-70B, and temporally stacked so that the summary of the past dialogue begins the next dialogue. Almost all samples were between 7500-8192 tokens long.
