 "summary": "falcon-7b: structural change at 3783374 (2023-07-13)",
 "details": "falcon-7b: EOS changed from 11 to 2; anything fine-tuned or served against the old value stops at a different token; BOS changed from 11 to 1; prompts built by the old tokenizer start with a different token; architectures [\"FalconForCausalLM\"] to [\"RWForCausalLM\"]; a different class is instantiated from the same id (2023-07-13).\n\nRepository: https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-7b. Revisions from 378337427557d1df3e742264a2901a49f25d4eb1 onward carry this change; a pin at 4e2d06f0a7c6370ebabbc30c6f59377ae8f73d76 or earlier does not.\n\nChanged keys:\n- architectures: [\"FalconForCausalLM\"] -> [\"RWForCausalLM\"] (structural)\n- model_type: falcon -> RefinedWebModel (structural)\n- generation bos_token_id: 11 -> 1 (tokenizer)\n- generation eos_token_id: 11 -> 2 (tokenizer)\n\nThis record says what the change does mechanically. It is not a report that anything broke for anyone.",
