# German GPT-2 model
|
||
|
||
In this repository we release (yet another) GPT-2 model, that was trained on various texts for German.
|
||
|
||
The model is meant to be an entry point for fine-tuning on other texts, and it is definitely not as good or "dangerous" as the English GPT-3 model. We do not plan extensive PR or staged releases for this model 😉
|
||
|
||
**Note**: The model was initially released under an anonymous alias (`anonymous-german-nlp/german-gpt2`) so we now "de-anonymize" it.
|
||
|
||
More details about GPT-2 can be found in the great [Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co/transformers/model_doc/gpt2.html) documentation.

## German GPT-2 fine-tuned on Faust I and II
|
||
|
||
We fine-tuned our German GPT-2 model on "Faust I and II" from Johann Wolfgang Goethe. These texts can be obtained from [Deutsches Textarchiv (DTA)](http://www.deutschestextarchiv.de/book/show/goethe_faust01_1808). We use the "normalized" version of both texts (to avoid out-of-vocabulary problems with e.g. "ſ")
|
||
|
||
Fine-Tuning was done for 100 epochs, using a batch size of 4 with half precision on a RTX 3090. Total time was around 12 minutes (it is really fast!).
|
||
|
||
We also open source this fine-tuned model. Text can be generated with:
|
||
|
||
```python
|
||
from transformers import pipeline
|
||
|
||
pipe = pipeline('text-generation', model="dbmdz/german-gpt2-faust",
|
||
tokenizer="dbmdz/german-gpt2-faust")
|
||
|
||
text = pipe("Schon um die Liebe", max_length=100)[0]["generated_text"]
|
||
|
||
print(text)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
and could output:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
Schon um die Liebe bitte ich, Herr! Wer mag sich die dreifach Ermächtigen?
|
||
Sei mir ein Held!
|
||
Und daß die Stunde kommt spreche ich nicht aus.
|
||
Faust (schaudernd).
|
||
Den schönen Boten finde' ich verwirrend;
|
||
```
