Model Card for Llama 3.1 8B Instruct -> IT_(cs+en)

Llama 3.1 8B Instruct instruction-tuned using a mixture of cs_instruction_tuning_collection and en_instruction_tuning_collection. More information in the thesis: TBA. (The notation is thesis is: B+IT -> IT_(cs+en))

🛑 Ethical Considerations and Limitations

This model is a Czech-adapted version of Meta's LLaMA 3.1 8B Instruct, developed as part of master's thesis. It is intended solely for academic and research purposes.

• ❗ Potential for Harm: The model may generate biased, offensive, false, or otherwise harmful content. It does not include safeguards such as moderation layers or toxicity detection.
• 🧪 Experimental Nature: This model is an academic experiment accompanying a thesis project and may contain unintended behaviors or limitations due to limited training data, resources, or evaluation.
• 👤 Responsibility: Any use of this model is at the user’s own risk. The author does not assume responsibility for any consequences arising from the use of the model.
• 🔒 Respect for Original License: This adaptation is subject to the original terms and conditions set by Meta for LLaMA models.
