## Training Details

Vicuna v1.5 (16k) is fine-tuned from Llama 2 with supervised instruction fine-tuning and linear RoPE scaling.
The training data is around 125K conversations collected from ShareGPT.com. These conversations are packed into sequences that contain 16K tokens each.
See more details in the "Training Details of Vicuna Models" section in the appendix of this [paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2306.05685.pdf).

## Evaluation
