Bielik-4.5B-v3-Instruct

Bielik-4.5B-v3-Instruct is a generative text model featuring 4.6 billion parameters. It is an instruct fine-tuned version of the Bielik-4.5B-v3. Forementioned model stands as a testament to the unique collaboration between the open-science/open-souce project SpeakLeash and the High Performance Computing (HPC) center: ACK Cyfronet AGH. Developed and trained on Polish text corpora, which has been cherry-picked and processed by the SpeakLeash team, this endeavor leverages Polish large-scale computing infrastructure, specifically within the PLGrid environment, and more precisely, the HPC centers: ACK Cyfronet AGH. The creation and training of the Bielik-4.5B-v3-Instruct was propelled by the support of computational grant number PLG/2024/017214 and PLG/2025/018338, conducted on the Athena and Helios supercomputer, enabling the use of cutting-edge technology and computational resources essential for large-scale machine learning processes. As a result, the model exhibits an exceptional ability to understand and process the Polish language, providing accurate responses and performing a variety of linguistic tasks with high precision.

Model

The SpeakLeash team is working on their own set of instructions in Polish, which is continuously being expanded and refined by annotators. A portion of these instructions, which had been manually verified and corrected, has been utilized for training purposes. Moreover, due to the limited availability of high-quality instructions in Polish, synthetic instructions were generated with Bielik 11B v2.3 and used in training. The dataset used for training comprised over 19 million instructions, consisting of more than 12 billion tokens.

To align the model with user preferences we tested many different techniques: DPO, PPO, KTO, SiMPO. Finally the DPO-Positive method was employed, utilizing both generated and manually corrected examples, which were scored by a metamodel. A dataset comprising over 111,000 examples of varying lengths to address different aspects of response style. It was filtered and evaluated by the reward model to select instructions with the right level of difference between chosen and rejected. The novelty introduced in DPO-P was multi-turn conversations introduction.

Bielik instruct models have been trained with the use of an original open source framework called ALLaMo implemented by Krzysztof Ociepa. This framework allows users to train language models with architecture similar to LLaMA and Mistral in fast and efficient way.

Chat template

Bielik-4.5B-v3-Instruct uses ChatML as the prompt format.

E.g.

prompt = "<s><|im_start|> user\nJakie mamy pory roku?<|im_end|> \n<|im_start|> assistant\n"
completion = "W Polsce mamy 4 pory roku: wiosna, lato, jesień i zima.<|im_end|> \n"

This format is available as a chat template via the apply_chat_template() method:

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

device = "cuda" # the device to load the model onto

model_name = "speakleash/Bielik-4.5B-v3-Instruct"

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16)

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "Odpowiadaj krótko, precyzyjnie i wyłącznie w języku polskim."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Jakie mamy pory roku w Polsce?"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "W Polsce mamy 4 pory roku: wiosna, lato, jesień i zima."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "Która jest najcieplejsza?"}
]

input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, return_tensors="pt")

model_inputs = input_ids.to(device)
model.to(device)

generated_ids = model.generate(model_inputs, max_new_tokens=1000, do_sample=True)
decoded = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids)
print(decoded[0])

Fully formated input conversation by apply_chat_template from previous example:

<s><|im_start|> system
Odpowiadaj krótko, precyzyjnie i wyłącznie w języku polskim.<|im_end|> 
<|im_start|> user
Jakie mamy pory roku w Polsce?<|im_end|> 
<|im_start|> assistant
W Polsce mamy 4 pory roku: wiosna, lato, jesień i zima.<|im_end|> 
<|im_start|> user
Która jest najcieplejsza?<|im_end|>

Limitations and Biases

Bielik-4.5B-v3-Instruct is a quick demonstration that the base model can be easily fine-tuned to achieve compelling and promising performance. It does not have any moderation mechanisms. We're looking forward to engaging with the community in ways to make the model respect guardrails, allowing for deployment in environments requiring moderated outputs.

Bielik-4.5B-v3-Instruct can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate data. Bielik-4.5B-v3-Instruct was trained on various public datasets. While great efforts have been taken to clear the training data, it is possible that this model can generate lewd, false, biased or otherwise offensive outputs.
