Structured generation with outlines

Generate RPG characters following a pydantic.BaseModel with outlines in distilabel.

This script makes use of LlamaCppLLM and the structured output capabilities thanks to outlines to generate RPG characters that adhere to a JSON schema.

Arena Hard

It makes use of a local model which can be downloaded using curl (explained in the script itself), and can be exchanged with other LLMs like vLLM.
