## 🚀 Usage & Access

### Quick Start 
```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_id = "AlicanKiraz/BaronLLM-v2.0"  # Requires authentication
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id, use_fast=True)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    torch_dtype="auto",
    device_map="auto",
)

def generate(prompt, **kwargs):
    inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)
    output = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=512, **kwargs)
    return tokenizer.decode(output[0], skip_special_tokens=True)

# Example usage
print(generate("Analyze the exploitability of CVE-2024-45721 in a Kubernetes cluster"))
```
