Boris-250M
Boris-250M is a 250 million-parameter language model created by New Millennium Artificial Intelligence (NMAI).
This is a base (pretrained) model. It has not been instruction-tuned and does not follow instructions or hold a conversation — it continues text. For an instruction-following version, see KSP-NMAI/Boris-250M-Instruct.
Usage
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("KSP-NMAI/Boris-250M")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("KSP-NMAI/Boris-250M")
ids = tok("The ocean is", return_tensors="pt").input_ids
out = model.generate(ids, max_new_tokens=40, do_sample=True, top_p=0.95)
print(tok.decode(out[0], skip_special_tokens=True))

Limitations
A base model of this size will produce text that is frequently inaccurate, inconsistent, or offensive. It has received no alignment or safety tuning and should not be used for factual reference or deployed without supervision.
