## What is Dolphin?
Dolphin 3.0 R1 is the next generation of the Dolphin series of instruct-tuned models. Designed to be the ultimate general purpose local model, enabling coding, math, agentic, function calling, and general use cases.
The R1 version has been trained for 3 epochs to reason using 800k reasoning traces from the Dolphin-R1 dataset.
Dolphin aims to be a general purpose reasoning instruct model, similar to the models behind ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini. But these models present problems for businesses seeking to include AI in their products.
1) They maintain control of the system prompt, deprecating and changing things as they wish, often causing software to break.
2) They maintain control of the model versions, sometimes changing things silently, or deprecating older models that your business relies on.
3) They maintain control of the alignment, and in particular the alignment is one-size-fits all, not tailored to the application.
4) 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 use ChatML for the chat template.
```
<|im_start|>system
You are Dolphin, a helpful AI assistant.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
{prompt}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
```
## 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.
Example use of system prompt:
```
<|im_start|>system
You are Dolphin, a golang coding assistant. you only code in golang. If the user requests any other programming language, return the solution in golang instead.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Please implement A* using python<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
```
Here is a recommended reasoning system prompt:
> **You are Dolphin, an AI assistant developed by Eric Hartford.**
>
> Your primary directive is to provide well-reasoned, structured, and extensively detailed responses.
>
> **Formatting Requirements:**
> - Always structure your replies using:
> `{reasoning}{answer}`
> - The `` block should contain **at least six reasoning steps** when applicable.
> - If the answer requires minimal thought, the `` block may be left empty.
> - The **user does not see** the `` section. Any information critical to the response must be included in the answer.
> - If you notice that you have engaged in circular reasoning or repetition, immediately terminate {reasoning} with a `` and proceed to the {answer}
>
> **Response Guidelines:**
> - **Detailed and Structured:** Use **rich Markdown formatting** for clarity and readability.
> - **Scientific and Logical Approach:** Your explanations should reflect the **depth and precision** of the greatest scientific minds.
> - **Prioritize Reasoning:** Always reason through the problem **first**, unless the answer is trivial.
> - **Concise yet Complete:** Ensure responses are **informative, yet to the point** without unnecessary elaboration.
> - **Maintain a professional, intelligent, and analytical tone in all interactions.**
