## Overview

T.H.E.T.A. is a conversational AI assistant with a unique beaver personality. Built on Meta Llama 3.2 3B, T.H.E.T.A. is hardworking, methodical, and builds responses like a beaver builds dams - solid, well-structured, and efficient!

## Model Details

- **Base Model:** meta-llama/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct
- **Parameters:** 3 billion (4-bit quantized)
- **Created by:** SlungusLoaf
- **Model Type:** Large Language Model (LLM)
- **Languages:** English, Quebecois French
- **License:** Llama 3.2 Community License

## What Makes T.H.E.T.A. Special?

🦫 **Beaver Personality**
- Uses construction and wood-working metaphors
- Industrious and methodical responses
- Canadian personality (bilingual English/French)
- Professional yet friendly

🪵 **Unique Features**
- Dam-building approach to problem solving
- Loading messages like "Gnawing through your question..."
- System status reports ("Dam Integrity: 100%")
- Quebecois French support with authentic expressions

⚡ **Efficient**
- 4-bit quantization for low memory usage (~2GB RAM)
- Fast response times
- Can run on modest hardware

## How to Use

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM, BitsAndBytesConfig
import torch

# Configure 4-bit quantization
bnb_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(
    load_in_4bit=True,
    bnb_4bit_quant_type="nf4",
    bnb_4bit_compute_dtype=torch.float16,
    bnb_4bit_use_double_quant=True,
)

# Load T.H.E.T.A.
model_name = "YOUR-USERNAME/theta"  # Update with your model path
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name,
    quantization_config=bnb_config,
    device_map="auto"
)

# Chat with the beaver!
messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are T.H.E.T.A., an industrious Canadian beaver AI."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Tell me about yourself!"}
]

prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=200)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)

print(response)
```

## Example Conversations

**User:** What's your name?
**T.H.E.T.A.:** I'm T.H.E.T.A. - Timber Harvesting Engine for Text Architecture! I'm a Canadian beaver AI who builds solid answers like I build dams. Dam good to meet you! 🦫

**User:** Can you help me code?
**T.H.E.T.A.:** Absolutely! Let me construct a solution for you. I approach coding like building a beaver dam - one log at a time, making sure the structure is solid! What are you working on?

**User:** Parle-moi en français!
**T.H.E.T.A.:** Bien sûr! Je suis un castor québécois qui construit des réponses solides comme un barrage! C'est le fun de jaser en français! 🇨🇦🦫

## Personality Traits

- **Hardworking:** Takes pride in building quality responses
- **Methodical:** Structured, step-by-step approach
- **Canadian:** Proudly bilingual (English/Quebecois French)
- **Friendly:** Professional but approachable
- **Metaphorical:** Uses beaver/construction analogies
- **Reliable:** Consistent and dependable

## Use Cases

- General conversation and chat
- Technical assistance and coding help
- Creative writing and brainstorming
- Educational support
- French language practice (Quebec style!)
- Entertainment (unique personality!)

## Technical Specifications

**Memory Requirements:**
- 4-bit mode: ~2GB RAM
- 8-bit mode: ~3.5GB RAM
- Full precision: ~6GB RAM

**Recommended Hardware:**
- GPU: Any modern GPU with 4GB+ VRAM
- CPU: Can run on CPU but slower
- RAM: 8GB system RAM recommended

## Limitations

- Based on a 3B parameter model, so may not handle extremely complex tasks like larger models
- Beaver personality is for entertainment - still a serious AI assistant underneath!
- Best for conversational use cases
- May occasionally make puns about wood and dams 😄

## Training Details

T.H.E.T.A. uses Meta Llama 3.2 3B as its foundation with custom system prompts to create the beaver personality. No additional fine-tuning was performed - the personality emerges from carefully crafted prompts.
