What is Dolphin X1 8B?
Dolphin X1 8B is a result of our effort to directly uncensor Llama's 3.1 8B instruct while also keeping the same abilities or improving on them with finetuning.
Dolphin aims to be a general purpose model, similar to the models behind ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini. But these models present problems for businesses seeking to include AI in their products.
- They maintain control of the system prompt, deprecating and changing things as they wish, often causing software to break.
- They maintain control of the model versions, sometimes changing things silently, or deprecating older models that your business relies on.
- They maintain control of the alignment, and in particular the alignment is one-size-fits all, not tailored to the application.
- They can see all your queries and they can potentially use that data in ways you wouldn't want. Dolphin, in contrast, is steerable and gives control to the system owner. You set the system prompt. You decide the alignment. You have control of your data. Dolphin does not impose its ethics or guidelines on you. You are the one who decides the guidelines.
Dolphin belongs to YOU, it is your tool, an extension of your will. Just as you are personally responsible for what you do with a knife, gun, fire, car, or the internet, you are the creator and originator of any content you generate with Dolphin.

Chat Template
We maintained the default Tulu chat template for this model. A typical input would look like this
<|system|>
system-prompt
<|user|>
user-prompt
<|assistant|>
assistant-prompt<|end_of_text|>
System Prompt
In Dolphin, the system prompt is what you use to set the tone and alignment of the responses. You can set a character, a mood, rules for its behavior, and it will try its best to follow them.
Make sure to set the system prompt in order to set the tone and guidelines for the responses - Otherwise, it will act in a default way that might not be what you want.
