# shadow-llm 🖤

> Fast. Lean. Runs in the dark.

shadow-llm is a lightweight language model designed for fast inference and low resource consumption. Built for developers who need a capable model without the overhead of massive architectures.

## Model description
shadow-llm is a lightweight, decoder-only language model optimized for fast inference on limited hardware. 
Designed with simplicity in mind, it targets everyday text generation and instruction-following tasks 
without the overhead of large-scale architectures. 
Built for developers and researchers who want a capable foundation model that stays out of the way and gets the job done.

## What it does

- Text generation
- Instruction following
- Lightweight question answering

## Usage

```python
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="your-username/shadow-llm")
result = pipe("The secret to fast inference is")
print(result)
```
