About

Tinker is a training API designed for researchers and developers that allows full control over model fine-tuning while abstracting away the infrastructure complexity. It supports primitives and enables users to build custom training loops, supervision logic, and reinforcement learning flows. It currently supports LoRA fine-tuning on open-weight models across both LLama and Qwen families, ranging from small models to large mixture-of-experts architectures. Users write Python code to handle data, loss functions, and algorithmic logic; Tinker handles scheduling, resource allocation, distributed training, and failure recovery behind the scenes. The service lets users download model weights at different checkpoints and doesn’t force them to manage the compute environment. Tinker is delivered as a managed offering; training jobs run on Thinking Machines’ internal GPU infrastructure, freeing users from cluster orchestration.

About

Vicuna-13B is an open-source chatbot trained by fine-tuning LLaMA on user-shared conversations collected from ShareGPT. Preliminary evaluation using GPT-4 as a judge shows Vicuna-13B achieves more than 90%* quality of OpenAI ChatGPT and Google Bard while outperforming other models like LLaMA and Stanford Alpaca in more than 90%* of cases. The cost of training Vicuna-13B is around $300. The code and weights, along with an online demo, are publicly available for non-commercial use.
