Instructions to use microsoft/DialoGPT-large with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use microsoft/DialoGPT-large with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="microsoft/DialoGPT-large")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("microsoft/DialoGPT-large")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("microsoft/DialoGPT-large")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

DialoGPT-large starts repeating himself after a few exchanges

I don't know if anyone here has had the same results, but this model starts repeating the same response after a while, no matter what I query him.
Even the online chatbox example on the model page does that.
Is that a known problem from this model? Anyone knows if there is a workaround for this?

I found this to be an issue as well. I'm not sure what it could be as I am just a newbie messing around with models. It seems to happen after so many queries.

https://github.com/microsoft/DialoGPT/issues/45 - solved. But there's another issue: after about 10 questions it starts sending one symbol or something like "Mmmkay" or "so".

Trained on Reddit threads, this is not a defect, would say it's doing exactly what it's learned.
