+# Model Card for checkpoints
+
+This model is a fine-tuned version of [Qwen/Qwen3-1.7B](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3-1.7B).
+It has been trained using [TRL](https://github.com/huggingface/trl).
+
+## Quick start
+
+```python
+from transformers import pipeline
+
+question = "If you had a time machine, but could only go to the past or the future once and never return, which would you choose and why?"
+generator = pipeline("text-generation", model="None", device_map="auto")
+output = generator([{"role": "user", "content": question}], max_new_tokens=128, return_full_text=False)[0]
+print(output["generated_text"])
+```
+
+## Training procedure
+
+ 
+
+
+
+This model was trained with SFT.

+    3. Load it into the provided model
+
+    Args:
+        - ``model``: the model object to update
+        - ``checkpoint_dir``: path to the desired checkpoint folder. (one that contains the tag-folder, like ``global_step14``)
+        - ``tag``: checkpoint tag used as a unique identifier for checkpoint. If not provided will attempt to load tag in the file named ``latest`` in the checkpoint folder, e.g., ``global_step14``

+        - ``model`: modified model
+
+    Make sure you have plenty of CPU memory available before you call this function. If you don't
+    have enough use the ``zero_to_fp32.py`` utility to do the conversion. You will find it
+    conveniently placed for you in the checkpoint folder.

+
+        from deepspeed.utils.zero_to_fp32 import load_state_dict_from_zero_checkpoint

+        # submit to model hub or save the model to share with others
+
+    Note, that once this was run, the ``model`` will no longer be usable in the deepspeed context
+    of the same application. i.e. you will need to re-initialize the deepspeed engine, since
+    ``model.load_state_dict(state_dict)`` will remove all the deepspeed magic from it.

+    3. Load it into the provided model
+
+    Args:
+        - ``model``: the model object to update
+        - ``checkpoint_dir``: path to the desired checkpoint folder. (one that contains the tag-folder, like ``global_step14``)
+        - ``tag``: checkpoint tag used as a unique identifier for checkpoint. If not provided will attempt to load tag in the file named ``latest`` in the checkpoint folder, e.g., ``global_step14``
+
+    Returns:
+        - ``model`: modified model
+
+    Make sure you have plenty of CPU memory available before you call this function. If you don't
+    have enough use the ``zero_to_fp32.py`` utility to do the conversion. You will find it
+    conveniently placed for you in the checkpoint folder.
+
+    A typical usage might be ::
+
+        from deepspeed.utils.zero_to_fp32 import load_state_dict_from_zero_checkpoint
+        model = load_state_dict_from_zero_checkpoint(trainer.model, checkpoint_dir)
+        # submit to model hub or save the model to share with others
+
+    Note, that once this was run, the ``model`` will no longer be usable in the deepspeed context
+    of the same application. i.e. you will need to re-initialize the deepspeed engine, since
+    ``model.load_state_dict(state_dict)`` will remove all the deepspeed magic from it.
