Falcon-180B-Instruct-v0.1

This instruction model was built via parameter-efficient QLoRA finetuning of falcon-180b on the first 5k rows of ehartford/dolphin and the first 5k rows of garage-bAInd/Open-Platypus. Finetuning was executed on 4x A6000s (48 GB RTX) for roughly 32 hours on the Lambda Labs platform.

Example 3:

User:

Tell me a recipe for vegan banana bread.

Falcon-180B-Instruct-v0.1:

Ingredients:

• 3 ripe bananas
• 1/3 cup melted coconut oil or vegan butter
• 1/4 cup non-dairy milk (almond, soy, or oat milk)
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
• 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or chocolate chips (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with vegan butter or coconut oil.

2. In a large mixing bowl, mash the ripe bananas with a fork until they are smooth.

3. Add the melted coconut oil or vegan butter, non-dairy milk, vanilla extract, and brown sugar to the mashed bananas. Mix well until combined.

4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and ground cinnamon (if using).

5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.

6. If you're using walnuts or chocolate chips, gently fold them into the batter.

7. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.

8. Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean.

9. Allow the banana bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

10. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!

Note: You can also use whole wheat flour or a gluten-free flour blend in place of all-purpose flour. Adjust the baking time accordingly, as whole wheat flour or gluten-free flour may require a longer baking time.

Optional variations:

• Add 1/2 cup of chopped nuts (walnuts, pecans, or almonds) or chocolate chips to the batter for extra flavor and texture.

Limitations and biases

The following language is modified from EleutherAI's GPT-NeoX-20B

This model can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate information. This model was trained on various public datasets. While great efforts have been taken to clean the pretraining data, it is possible that this model could generate lewd, biased or otherwise offensive outputs.

Basic usage
