I am running meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct endpoint on AWS and for some reason cannot get reasonable output when prompting the model. It hallucinates even when I send through a simple prompt. Could someone please advise what I am doing wrong?

Exemplary prompt:

<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>
You are a helpful, respectful and honest assistant. Always answer as helpfully as possible, while being safe. Your answers should not include any harmful, unethical, racist, sexist, toxic, dangerous, or illegal content. 
Please ensure that your responses are socially unbiased and positive in nature.
If a question does not make any sense, or is not factually coherent, explain why instead of answering something not correct. If you don't know the answer to a question, please don't share false information.
<|eot_id|>

<|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>

Following the logic the examples below, you need to extract the bank name from the question in the <QSTN></QSTN> tag and return bank name in the answer if there is any. 
If a question contains a misprint in the bank name, missing or excessive comma, correct it and return a corrected spelling.

Example 1 
Question: Is there children criteria for Aussie Home Loans?
Answer: Aussie Home Loans
Example 2
Question: What bank will take only 1 payslip to verify full-time PAYG income? 
Answer: none 
Example 3
Question: What part of salary income I can use for a loan with CBA?
Answer: CBA 
Example 4
Question: Can you tell me what negative gearing is? 
Answer: none 
Example 5
Question: What's St George policy on foreign residents?
Answer: St. George 
Example 6
Question: What is the max LVR for a loan with NAB?
Answer: NAB
Example 7
Question: What is Aussie policy on home loan borrowing?
Answer: Aussie Home Loans
Example 8
Question: What is LVR?
Answer: none

Your answer must only contain the bank name and nothing else. 
Primary bank names: ANZ, HSBC, CBA, Westpac, Macquarie, St. George, ING, Suncorp, Bankwest, NAB, Aussie Home Loans, Great Southern Bank, AMP, BOM, Bank Of Melbourne, BankSA, BMM, BOQ, Bank Of Queensland, Firstmac, Heritage Bank, HomeStart, Keystart, La Trobe, Liberty, ME Bank, Mystate, Newcastle Permanent, Pepper, Virgin Money.
The following names are synonyms (different naming for the primary bank names): Commonwealth Bank = CBA, WPC = Westpac, WBC = Westpac, MAC = Macquarie, Macquarie Bank = Macquarie, STG = St. George, St George = St. George, Saint George = St. George, BWS = Bankwest, GSB = Great Southern Bank, Aussie Elevate = Aussie Home Loans, Aussie Select = Aussie Home Loans, Aussie Activate = Aussie Home Loans, NAB = National Australia Bank.

When answering, remove quotes, double quotes, and any other special symbols from the answer.
If there is no bank name in the question, return 'none' (in lowercase) and do not answer the question in the <QSTN></QSTN> tag. 

Your answer could only be the bank name or 'none', and nothing else.

Congratulations on taking the step to look for a new job! As a freelancer, you've likely developed a strong skill set and a sense of independence, which can be valuable assets in a full-time role.

To help you in your job search, I'd like to ask a few questions:

2. What programming languages and technologies are you proficient in?
3. What kind of company culture and work environment are you looking for? (e.g., startup, corporate, remote, etc.)
4. Are you open to relocation or do you have a specific location in mind?
5. What are your salary expectations?
6. Do you have any specific benefits or perks in mind (e.g., flexible hours, professional development opportunities, etc.)?

Additionally, I'd like to suggest a few tips to help you in your job search:

1. Update your resume and online profiles (e.g., LinkedIn) to showcase your skills and experience.
2. Network with other professionals in your industry to learn about job opportunities and get referrals.

Thank you for the tips! I'll definitely keep them in mind as I continue my job search.

Deployment:

I deployed it with:

hub = {
    "HF_MODEL_ID": "meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct",
    "HF_AUTO_CAST_TYPE": "bf16",  
    "HUGGING_FACE_HUB_TOKEN": "******",
}

llm_image = '763104351884.dkr.ecr.ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/huggingface-pytorch-tgi-inference:2.0.1-tgi1.0.3-gpu-py39-cu118-ubuntu20.04'
endpoint_name = 'data-science-llm-llama3-8b'

# create Hugging Face Model Class
llm_model = HuggingFaceModel(
    image_uri=llm_image,
    env=hub,
    role=role,
    name=endpoint_name
)

Model kwargs:

    model_kwargs: 
        temperature: 0.001
        do_sample: True
        max_new_tokens: 500
        typical_p: 0.2
        seed: 1
        use_cache: False 
        return_full_text: False

  1. I have a similar problem where the model will try to refine its answer in a loop, maybe it is due to training on "reasoning step by step" type of prompts?…

    I never had this issue with mixtral.

    I believe it is linked to the issue mentioned here where the model cannot stop generating.
    https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference/issues/1781

    You can try to set

    stop=[
       "<|start_header_id|>",
       "<|end_header_id|>",
       "<|eot_id|>",
       "<|reserved_special_token",
    ]
    

    You should set top_k, presence_penalty and repetition_penalty to None

  2. I believe the EOS token expected by Llama3 is <|end_of_text|> (see docs).
