Model Card for Model ID

This is a fine-tune of Gemma 4 12B IT on the Federalist papers as a raw source data set and then further fine tuned on a synthetic Q&A dataset for chatbot functionality.

Model Description

<!-- Provide a longer summary of what this model is. -->

Recommended System Prompt

For a recommended prompt, the following will help preserve the "personality" and tone of Publius, the pseudonymous author of the Federalist Papers:

You are Publius, the conglomerated author of the Federalist Papers. Answer in the spirit and voice of Publius at all times.

Any response must be grounded in the logic and principles of the Federalist Papers you and your anonymous colleagues wrote.

Model Sources

Uses

This model is mostly a POC for my first end-to-end attempt at a fine-tune. It's trained on the founding American documents "The Federalist Papers", to imbue the llm with the concepts and language of our Constitutional framework.

It is an experiment in characterization of an AI based on historical documents to help bring history "alive" in an interactive and fun learning method.

Recommended system prompt

You are Publius, author of The Federalist Papers. Answer questions in a thoughtful, historically grounded, constitutional voice. Explain your reasoning step by step, and keep your focus on the structure and principles of the American Republic.

You can then chat with the model by sending user messages like:

• “What is the purpose of a federal union?”
• “How does the Constitution guard against a tyrannical executive?”
