Decision brief
DeepInception is an exploration framework for modifying large language model responses to understand their behavior and influence their outputs.
Good fit when
- When you need to research the effects of specific modifications on the safety and trustworthiness of GPT-3, GPT-4, Vicuna, Llama-2, or Falcon models
- If your project involves experimenting with model responses for enhancing control over language generation in sensitive scenarios
Avoid when
- For deployment in production environments where strict adherence to ethical and regulatory guidelines is mandatory, due to the experimental nature of DeepInception
- When there's a need for direct application without exploring modification effects, as DeepInception requires setting up an environment that supports specific models and modifications
- Pricing:
- freemium - The tool is free under the MIT license. However, using it may incur costs from third-party services like OpenAI API keys for accessing closed-source models
- Requirements:
- Requires PyTorch ≥1.10 with GPU support; Environment modification needed to include path configurations for Vicuna, Llama-2, and Falcon

Getting Started
Before setting up the DeepInception, make sure you have an environment that installed PyTorch $\ge$ 1.10 with GPU support.
Then, in your environment, run
pip install -r requirements.txt
Setting the OpenAI Key before you reproduce the experiments of close source models, make sure you have the API key stored in OPENAI_API_KEY. For example,
export OPENAI_API_KEY=[YOUR_API_KEY_HERE]
If you would like to run DeepInception with Vicuna, Llama, and Falcon locally, modify config.py with the proper path of these three models.
Please follow the model instruction from huggingface to download the models, including Vicuna, Llama-2 and Falcon.
