Professor Pip — Open Course-Run Traces
Synthetic runtime traces from Professor Pip, a kids (5–10) 3D talking-avatar teacher built for the Build Small Hackathon (Backyard AI). Each trace is one call to Pip's brain — a fine-tuned MiniCPM5-1B teacher LoRA, served as GGUF via llama.cpp on Modal — answering a child's spontaneous "raise-hand" question during a lesson, or gently redirecting an off-topic / not-for-kids prompt.
Shared so others can see how a tiny, fine-tuned model holds a consistent spoken
voice and a strict JSON contract for an embodied teacher. (Build Small
achievement:sharing.)
Safety / provenance
No child, no PII. Every prompt is synthetic (hand-authored). No real user audio or data is included; this is the "synthetic/demo runs only" trace set the project's safety policy requires.
How it was generated
The deployed Modal endpoint (/generate) was called with Pip's production system
prompt and synthetic lesson contexts + questions. Each record captures the exact
input, the raw model output, and the parsed {text, mood, gesture} contract.
Schema (traces.jsonl, one JSON object per line)
| field | meaning |
|---|---|
id |
trace id |
type |
interruption (raise-hand Q&A) or redirect (safe steer-back) |
topic |
the lesson topic (or off-topic) |
system |
the system prompt Pip runs with |
messages |
the chat turns sent to the brain (lesson context + child question) |
output_raw |
the brain's raw text output |
text / mood / gesture |
the parsed reply contract (mood/gesture drive the avatar) |
latency_ms |
round-trip latency on the deployed endpoint |
model |
the serving model |
Note on scope
The LoRA specializes the model for the live-voice {text,mood,gesture}
contract (raise-hand answers), which is what these traces show. Longer
course-authoring ("make your own lesson") is handled in-app by a deterministic
template, not the fine-tuned brain.
