## 🚀 Quick Start

### Using Transformers

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
import torch

# Load model and tokenizer
model_name = "adityakum667388/lumichats-v1.1"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    device_map="auto"
)

# Prepare conversation
messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful AI assistant."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "What is the capital of France?"}
]

# Generate response
input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    add_generation_prompt=True,
    return_tensors="pt"
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(
    input_ids,
    max_new_tokens=512,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.9,
    do_sample=True,
    eos_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id
)

response = tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][input_ids.shape[-1]:], skip_special_tokens=True)
print(response)
```

### Using Unsloth for Inference (Fastest)

```python
from unsloth import FastLanguageModel

# Load model with Unsloth (2x faster inference)
model, tokenizer = FastLanguageModel.from_pretrained(
    model_name="adityakum667388/lumichats-v1.1",
    max_seq_length=2048,
    dtype=None,  # Auto-detect
    load_in_4bit=True,  # Memory efficient
)

# Enable native 2x faster inference
FastLanguageModel.for_inference(model)

# Chat template
messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful AI assistant."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing"}
]

inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    tokenize=True,
    add_generation_prompt=True,
    return_tensors="pt"
).to("cuda")

outputs = model.generate(
    input_ids=inputs,
    max_new_tokens=128,
    temperature=1.5,
    min_p=0.1
)
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs))
```

### Chat Template Format

LumiChats v1.1 uses the Llama 3.1 chat template format:

```
<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>

You are a helpful AI assistant.<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>

Hello!<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>
```

**Special Tokens:**
- `<|begin_of_text|>` - Beginning of sequence
- `<|start_header_id|>` - Start of role header
- `<|end_header_id|>` - End of role header
- `<|eot_id|>` - End of turn
- `<|finetune_right_pad_id|>` - Padding token

### Using GGUF Format (llama.cpp)

```python
from llama_cpp import Llama

# Load GGUF model
llm = Llama(
    model_path="lumichats-v1.1-Q4_K_M.gguf",
    n_ctx=4096,
    n_gpu_layers=-1  # Use GPU acceleration
)

# Format prompt with chat template
prompt = """<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>

You are a helpful AI assistant.<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>

What is machine learning?<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|>

"""

# Generate response
output = llm(
    prompt,
    max_tokens=512,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.9,
    stop=["<|eot_id|>", "<|end_of_text|>", "<|im_end|>", "<|endoftext|>"]
)

print(output['choices'][0]['text'])
```

### Using Ollama

```bash
# Pull the model (if available on Ollama)
ollama pull lumichats-v1.1

# Run inference
ollama run lumichats-v1.1 "Explain quantum computing in simple terms"
```

- **Factual Accuracy**: Can occasionally generate plausible but incorrect information
- **Bias**: May reflect biases present in training data
- **Specialized Knowledge**: Not optimized for highly technical or domain-specific tasks
- **Real-time Information**: No access to current events (knowledge cutoff applies)
- **Safety**: Should be deployed with appropriate content filtering and monitoring
- **LoRA Constraints**: Trained parameters limited to attention and MLP layers
