RecGPT: Generative Pre-training for Text-based Recommendation

We present the first domain-adapted and fully-trained large language model, RecGPT-7B, and its instruction-following variant, RecGPT-7B-Instruct, for text-based recommendation. Experimental results on rating prediction and sequential recommendation tasks show that our model, RecGPT-7B-Instruct, outperforms previous strong baselines. The general architecture and experimental results of RecGPT can be found in our paper:

We publicly release the RecGPT models along with their pre-training and fine-tuning datasets.
