- This [conversational notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1Aau3lgPzeZKQ-98h69CCu1UJcvIBLmy2?usp=sharing) is useful for ShareGPT ChatML / Vicuna templates.
- This [text completion notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1ef-tab5bhkvWmBOObepl1WgJvfvSzn5Q?usp=sharing) is for raw text. This [DPO notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/15vttTpzzVXv_tJwEk-hIcQ0S9FcEWvwP?usp=sharing) replicates Zephyr.
- \* Kaggle has 2x T4s, but we use 1. Due to overhead, 1x T4 is 5x faster.
