# Atom v1 Preview

A collaborative AI research assistant developed by VANTA Research.

## Quick Start

```bash
pip install transformers torch accelerate
```

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
import torch

model_name = "vanta-research/atom-v1-preview"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name, trust_remote_code=True)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name,
    torch_dtype=torch.float16,
    device_map="auto",
    trust_remote_code=True
)

messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "Explain quantum computing"}]
input_ids = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=True, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
outputs = model.generate(input_ids, max_new_tokens=512, temperature=0.8, top_p=0.9, do_sample=True)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][input_ids.shape[1]:], skip_special_tokens=True))
```

## Key Features
