This paper presents a breakthrough in using large language models (LLMs) for chemistry tasks. Despite LLMs like GPT-4 showing impressive results on natural language processing, they struggled with chemistry-related tasks. The authors propose SMolInstruct, a comprehensive dataset of 14 selected chemistry tasks and over three million samples, which outperforms existing GPT-4 models by a significant margin. By fine-tuning open-source LLMs using SMolInstruct, the researchers identify Mistral as the best base model for chemistry tasks.

Chemistry is important in many areas like medicine and materials science. But current language models are not very good at understanding chemistry concepts. This paper shows that a new kind of language model can do much better on chemistry tasks than existing ones. They created a big dataset with lots of examples of chemistry problems to help the model learn. With this training, the model became really good at solving chemistry problems.
