LLaMA3-8B-Lawyer

This project involves fine-tuning the LLaMA3-8B model using the dzunggg/legal-qa-v1 dataset. The fine-tuning was conducted with the LLaMA-Factory toolkit on a single NVIDIA L20-48G GPU. The fine-tuned model has been uploaded to Hugging Face and is available at StevenChen16/llama3-8b-Lawyer.

Project Overview

The primary goal of this project was to create a high-performing legal question-answering model based on LLaMA3-8B. By leveraging the dzunggg/legal-qa-v1 dataset and the capabilities of LLaMA-Factory, we were able to fine-tune the model effectively. The AI model can function like a lawyer, asking detailed questions about the case background and making judgments based on the provided information.

Hardware

Usage

You can load and use the fine-tuned model from Hugging Face as follows:

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_name = "StevenChen16/llama3-8b-Lawyer"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name)

# Example usage
input_text = "Your legal question here."
inputs = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(**inputs)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)

print(response)

Example Interaction

The model can engage in a detailed interaction, simulating the behavior of a lawyer. Provide the case background, and the model will ask for more details to make informed judgments.

Example

input_text = "I have a contract dispute where the other party did not deliver the promised goods."
inputs = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(**inputs)
response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True)

print(response)

Output:

Can you provide more details about the contract terms and the goods that were supposed to be delivered? Were there any specific deadlines mentioned in the contract?
