# LLaMA-7B-Instruct-API-Coder

## Model Description

This model is a fine-tuned version of the LLaMA-7B-Instruct model, specifically trained on conversational data related to RESTful API usage and code generation. The training data was generated by LLaMA-70B-Instruct, focusing on API interactions and code creation based on user queries and JSON REST schemas.

## Intended Use

This model is designed to assist developers and API users in:

1. Understanding and interacting with RESTful APIs
2. Generating code snippets to call APIs based on user questions
3. Interpreting JSON REST schemas
4. Providing conversational guidance on API usage

## Training Data

The model was fine-tuned on a dataset of conversational interactions generated by LLaMA-70B-Instruct. This dataset includes:

- Discussions about RESTful API concepts
- Examples of API usage
- Code generation based on API schemas
- Q&A sessions about API integration

## Training Procedure

1. Base Model: LLaMA-7B-Instruct
2. Quantization: The base model was loaded in 4-bit precision using Unsloth for efficient training
3. Fine-tuning Method: SFTTrainer (Supervised Fine-Tuning Trainer) was used for the fine-tuning process
4. LoRA (Low-Rank Adaptation): The model was fine-tuned using LoRA to generate an adapter
5. Merging: The LoRA adapter was merged back with the original model to create the final fine-tuned version

This approach allows for efficient fine-tuning while maintaining model quality and reducing computational requirements.

## Limitations

- The model's knowledge is limited to the APIs and schemas present in the training data
- It may not be up-to-date with the latest API standards or practices
- The generated code should be reviewed and tested before use in production environments
- Performance may vary compared to the full-precision model due to 4-bit quantization

## Ethical Considerations

- The model should not be used to access or manipulate APIs without proper authorization
- Users should be aware of potential biases in the generated code or API usage suggestions
