```
Then, copy the snippet from the section that is relevant for your usecase.

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

device = "auto"
model_path = "ibm-granite/granite-3.0-8b-instruct"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_path)
# drop device_map if running on CPU
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_path, device_map=device)
model.eval()
# change input text as desired
chat = [
    { "role": "user", "content": "Please list one IBM Research laboratory located in the United States. You should only output its name and location." },
]
chat = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(chat, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
# tokenize the text
input_tokens = tokenizer(chat, return_tensors="pt").to(device)
# generate output tokens
output = model.generate(**input_tokens, 
                        max_new_tokens=100)
# decode output tokens into text
output = tokenizer.batch_decode(output)
# print output
print(output)
```

<!-- CHECK: removed Vela, only talk about blue-vela-->
## Infrastructure
We train the Granite Language models using IBM's super computing cluster, Blue Vela, which is outfitted with NVIDIA H100 GPUs. This cluster provides a scalable and efficient infrastructure for training our models over thousands of GPUs.

## Ethical Considerations and Limitations
Granite instruct models are primarily finetuned using instruction-response pairs mostly in English, but also in German, Spanish, French, Japanese, Portuguese, Arabic, Czech, Italian, Korean, Dutch, and Chinese (Simplified). As this model has been exposed to multilingual data, it can handle multilingual dialog use cases with a limited performance in non-English tasks. In such case, introducing a small number of examples (few-shot) can help the model in generating more accurate outputs. The model also inherits ethical considerations and limitations from its base model.
