  • Multi-turn conversations: Zephyr can engage in multi-turn conversations, allowing for more natural and interactive dialogue.
Examples
Explain how Mixture of Experts work in language a child would understand. Imagine you have a big box full of different colored balls, and each ball can do a special job. A Mixture of Experts is like a magic machine that picks the right ball for the job you need done. It looks at what you need help with and says, 'Oh, this ball is really good at that!' and uses it to get the job done.

Performance

Zephyr 141B-A39B is a powerful language model that has shown impressive performance in various tasks. Let’s take a closer look at its speed, accuracy, and efficiency.

Speed

How fast can Zephyr 141B-A39B process language tasks? The model was trained using ORPO, which is much more computationally efficient than other methods.

Accuracy

But how accurate is Zephyr 141B-A39B? The model has achieved strong performance on chat benchmarks like MT Bench and IFEval. Here are some scores to give you an idea:

ModelMT BenchIFEvalBBHAGIEval
Zephyr 141B-A39B8.1765.0658.9644.16

Mistralai/Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.18.3055.0845.3147.68

Efficiency

But what about efficiency? Zephyr 141B-A39B is a fine-tuned version of mistral-community/Mixtral-8x22B-v0.1, which means it has a smaller number of active parameters (39B) compared to the original model. This makes it more efficient in terms of computational resources.

Limitations

Zephyr 141B-A39B is a powerful language model, but it has some limitations you should know about.

Lack of Safety Alignment

Unlike some other models, Zephyr 141B-A39B hasn’t been aligned to human preferences for safety. This means it can produce problematic outputs, especially when prompted to do so. Be careful when using the model, and always review its responses.

Unknown Training Data

The base model Zephyr 141B-A39B was fine-tuned from, mistral-community/Mixtral-8x22B-v0.1, was likely trained on a mix of web data and technical sources. However, the exact size and composition of the corpus are unknown. This lack of transparency can make it harder to understand the model’s strengths and weaknesses.

Limited Domain Knowledge

While Zephyr 141B-A39B has been fine-tuned on a blend of chat, code, math, and reasoning data, its domain knowledge may still be limited. It’s essential to evaluate the model’s performance on specific tasks and domains to understand its capabilities.

Potential Biases

As with any AI model, Zephyr 141B-A39B may reflect biases present in its training data. Be aware of these potential biases and take steps to mitigate them when using the model.

Format

Zephyr 141B-A39B is a Mixture of Experts (MoE) model with 141B total parameters and 39B active parameters. It’s primarily designed to handle English language tasks.

Architecture

The model is a fine-tuned version of mistral-community/Mixtral-8x22B-v0.1, trained using ORPO. This allows it to achieve high performance without requiring a separate SFT step.

Data Formats

Zephyr 141B-A39B supports a mix of publicly available and synthetic datasets, including chat, code, math, and reasoning data.

Input Requirements

To use the model, you’ll need to format your input as a list of messages, where each message has a role and content. For example:

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are Zephyr, a helpful assistant."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Explain how Mixture of Experts work in language a child would understand."}
]

Output Requirements

The model generates text outputs, which can be accessed using the generated_text key. For example:

outputs = pipe(messages, max_new_tokens=512, do_sample=True, temperature=0.7, top_k=50, top_p=0.95)
print(outputs[0]["generated_text"][-1]["content"])

Special Requirements

Note that Zephyr 141B-A39B has not been aligned to human preferences for safety, so it may produce problematic outputs when prompted to do so. Additionally, the model has not been deployed with in-the-loop filtering of responses like ChatGPT.
