Llama3.1 8B CPT SEA-LIONv3 Instruct

SEA-LION is a collection of Large Language Models (LLMs) which have been pretrained and instruct-tuned for the Southeast Asia (SEA) region.

Llama3.1 8B CPT SEA-LIONv3 Instruct is a multilingual model that has been fine-tuned in two stages on approximately 12.3M English instruction-completion pairs alongside a pool of 4.5M Southeast Asian instruction-completion pairs from SEA languages such as Indonesian, Javanese, Sundanese, Tamil, Thai and Vietnamese.

SEA-LION stands for Southeast Asian Languages In One Network.

Caveats

It is important for users to be aware that our model exhibits certain limitations that warrant consideration. Like many LLMs, the model can hallucinate and occasionally generates irrelevant content, introducing fictional elements that are not grounded in the provided context. Users should also exercise caution in interpreting and validating the model's responses due to the potential inconsistencies in its reasoning.

Limitations

Safety

Current SEA-LION models, including this commercially permissive release, have not been aligned for safety. Developers and users should perform their own safety fine-tuning and related security measures. In no event shall the authors be held liable for any claim, damages, or other liability arising from the use of the released weights and codes.

Technical Specifications

Fine-Tuning Details

Llama3.1 8B CPT SEA-LIONv3 Instruct was tuned using a combination of a full parameter fine-tune, on-policy alignment, and model merges of the best performing checkpoints. The training process for fine-tuning was approximately 1024 GPU hours, on a single node of 8x H100-80GB GPUs.

Data

Llama3.1 8B CPT SEA-LIONv3 Instruct was trained on a wide range of synthetic instructions, alongside publicly available instructions hand-curated by the team with the assistance of native speakers. In addition, special care was taken to ensure that the datasets used had commercially permissive licenses through verification with the original data source.

Call for Contributions

We encourage researchers, developers, and language enthusiasts to actively contribute to the enhancement and expansion of SEA-LION. Contributions can involve identifying and reporting bugs, sharing pre-training, instruction, and preference data, improving documentation usability, proposing and implementing new model evaluation tasks and metrics, or training versions of the model in additional Southeast Asian languages. Join us in shaping the future of SEA-LION by sharing your expertise and insights to make these models more accessible, accurate, and versatile. Please check out our GitHub for further information on the call for contributions.
