Report #1288

[tooling] LLM model not properly initialized, leading to incorrect response generation

The issue is caused by the missing initialization of the α parameter in the LLM's encoder layer. To fix this, add the following line at the top of your script: \`encoder = nn.DataParallel\(encoder, device=device\)\`, where \`device\` is the desired GPU or CPU target.

Journey Context:
After analyzing the codebase, it was discovered that the α parameter was not being initialized properly due to a mismatch between the model architecture and the training data. This led to incorrect response generation, resulting in poor performance on downstream tasks.
