ArabianGPT 1.5B Model Overview
Disclaimer for the Use of Large Language Models (LLMs) for Text Generation
Important Note: Currently, we offer a raw pre-trained model. Our team is actively working on releasing instruction-based LLMs that are fine-tuned and augmented with LRHF. The first set of pre-trained models has been made available for community exploration. While we do have models fine-tuned for specific tasks such as summarization and sentiment analysis, they are still in the development phase.
How you can use this Pre-Trained Model?
You are invited to utilize this pre-trained, native Arabic language model as an experimental tool to assess its capabilities, aid in its fine-tuning, and evaluate its performance across a variety of downstream tasks. We encourage you to review our technical report for a comprehensive understanding of the model's performance metrics and the specific downstream tasks it has been tested on. This will provide valuable insights into its applicability and effectiveness in diverse applications.
