We introduce Starling-LM-7B-beta, an open large language model (LLM) trained by Reinforcement Learning from AI Feedback (RLAIF). Starling-LM-7B-beta is trained from Openchat-3.5-0106 with our new reward model Nexusflow/Starling-RM-34B and policy optimization method Fine-Tuning Language Models from Human Preferences (PPO). Harnessing the power of the ranking dataset, berkeley-nest/Nectar, the upgraded reward model, Starling-RM-34B, and the new reward training and policy tuning pipeline, Starling-LM-7B-beta scores an improved 8.12 in MT Bench with GPT-4 as a judge.
Uses
Important: Please use the exact chat template provided below for the model. Otherwise there will be a degradation in the performance. The model output can be verbose in rare cases. Please consider setting temperature = 0 to make this happen less.
Our model follows the exact chat template and usage as Openchat-3.5-0106. Please refer to their model card for more details. In addition, our model is hosted on LMSYS Chatbot Arena for free test.
The conversation template is the same as Openchat-3.5-0106:
import transformers
tokenizer = transformers.AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("openchat/openchat-3.5-0106")
# Single-turn
tokens = tokenizer("GPT4 Correct User: Hello<|end_of_turn|>GPT4 Correct Assistant:").input_ids
assert tokens == [1, 420, 6316, 28781, 3198, 3123, 1247, 28747, 22557, 32000, 420, 6316, 28781, 3198, 3123, 21631, 28747]
# Multi-turn
tokens = tokenizer("GPT4 Correct User: Hello<|end_of_turn|>GPT4 Correct Assistant: Hi<|end_of_turn|>GPT4 Correct User: How are you today?<|end_of_turn|>GPT4 Correct Assistant:").input_ids
assert tokens == [1, 420, 6316, 28781, 3198, 3123, 1247, 28747, 22557, 32000, 420, 6316, 28781, 3198, 3123, 21631, 28747, 15359, 32000, 420, 6316, 28781, 3198, 3123, 1247, 28747, 1602, 460, 368, 3154, 28804, 32000, 420, 6316, 28781, 3198, 3123, 21631, 28747]
# Coding Mode
tokens = tokenizer("Code User: Implement quicksort using C++<|end_of_turn|>Code Assistant:").input_ids
assert tokens == [1, 7596, 1247, 28747, 26256, 2936, 7653, 1413, 334, 1680, 32000, 7596, 21631, 28747]
Code Examples
import transformers
tokenizer = transformers.AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Nexusflow/Starling-LM-7B-beta")
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("Nexusflow/Starling-LM-7B-beta")
def generate_response(prompt):

return response_text
# Single-turn conversation
prompt = "Hello, how are you?"
single_turn_prompt = f"GPT4 Correct User: {prompt}<|end_of_turn|>GPT4 Correct Assistant:"
response_text = generate_response(single_turn_prompt)
print("Response:", response_text)
## Multi-turn conversation
prompt = "Hello"
follow_up_question = "How are you today?"
response = ""
multi_turn_prompt = f"GPT4 Correct User: {prompt}<|end_of_turn|>GPT4 Correct Assistant: {response}<|end_of_turn|>GPT4 Correct User: {follow_up_question}<|end_of_turn|>GPT4 Correct Assistant:"
response_text = generate_response(multi_turn_prompt)
print("Multi-turn conversation response:", response_text)
### Coding conversation
prompt = "Implement quicksort using C++"
coding_prompt = f"Code User: {prompt}<|end_of_turn|>Code Assistant:"
response = generate_response(coding_prompt)
print("Coding conversation response:", response)
