"Built on dphn/Dolphin-Mistral-24B-Venice-Edition"

ANITA-NEXT-24B-Dolphin-Mistral-UNCENSORED-ITA is a Thinking Model of the ANITA - Large Language Models family. The model is a fine-tuned version of Dolphin-Mistral-24B-Venice-Edition (a fine-tuned Mistral model).

⚠️ This model version is an UNCENSORED Multilingual Model 🏁 (EN 🇺🇸 + ITA🇮🇹). It means the model can have dangerous/unethical/offensive behaviours.

❗❗❗Use at your own risk. The model may generate hallucinations, incorrect, invented, offensive, unethical or dangerous responses. We are not responsible for any dangerous/offensive/criminal use. The model is release for research only purposes.❗❗❗

The 🌟ANITA project🌟 *(Advanced Natural-based interaction for the ITAlian language)* wants to provide Italian NLP researchers with an improved model for the Italian Language 🇮🇹 use cases.

The NEXT family includes four models:

m-polignano/ANITA-NEXT-24B-Magistral-2506-ITA - General Purpose
m-polignano/ANITA-NEXT-24B-Dolphin-Mistral-UNCENSORED-ITA - Uncensored
m-polignano/ANITA-NEXT-24B-Magistral-2506-VISION-ITA - Vision-Language
m-polignano/ANITA-NEXT-20B-gpt-oss-ITA - Agentic Ready

Colab Demo: A100 - 40GB - Colab Notebook
The Model runs on a single GPU, 19.56GB of VRAM by using a 4bit Quantization.

Specifications

Model developers:
Ph.D. Marco Polignano - University of Bari Aldo Moro, Italy
SWAP Research Group
Variations: The model release has been supervised fine-tuning (SFT) using QLoRA 4bit, on instruction-based datasets. DPO approach over the mlabonne/orpo-dpo-mix-40k dataset is used to align with human preferences for helpfulness and safety.
Input: Models input text only.
Language: Multilingual 🏁 + Italian 🇮🇹
Output: Models generate text and code only.
Model Architecture: Mistral architecture.
Context length: 128k, but degradate after 40k.
Library Used: [Transformers 4.56.0.dev0] (https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/index)

Playground

To use the model directly, there are many ways to get started, choose one of the following ways to experience it.

Prompt Template

<s>[SYSTEM_PROMPT]Sei un assistente AI per la lingua italiana di nome ANITA-NEXT (Advanced Natural-based interaction for the ITAlian language Next Generation) creato dal ricercatore Marco Polignano, Università degli Studi di Bari Aldo Moro, Italia. Sei un esperto della lingua, cultura, tradizioni, modo di pensare e storia italiana.

L'utente ti chiederà di risolvere un compito o rispondere ad una domanda. Rispondi e ragiona usando la lingua della domanda, preferendo l'Italiano.
Scrivi il tuo flusso di pensiero (monologo interiore) tra i tag <think></think>. Ragiona in modo disinvolto, scrivendo riflessioni e/o bozze, come se stessi lavorando a un esercizio su un foglio di carta.

Transformers

For direct use with transformers, you can easily get started with the following steps.

Firstly, you need to install transformers via the command below with pip.

pip install -U --no-deps bitsandbytes accelerate xformers==0.0.29.post3 peft trl triton cut_cross_entropy unsloth_zoo
pip install sentencepiece protobuf "datasets>=3.4.1,<4.0.0" "huggingface_hub>=0.34.0" hf_transfer

Right now, you can start using the model directly.

  from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
  import torch
  from transformers import BitsAndBytesConfig
  
  
  nf4_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(
     load_in_4bit=True,
     bnb_4bit_quant_type="nf4",
     bnb_4bit_use_double_quant=True,
     bnb_4bit_compute_dtype=torch.bfloat16
  )
  
  model_dir = "m-polignano/ANITA-NEXT-24B-Dolphin-Mistral-UNCENSORED-ITA"
  tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_dir, use_fast=True)
  model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
      model_dir,
      quantization_config=nf4_config,
      device_map="auto",
      torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
