Jon Durbin's Airoboros 7B GPT4 GGML

These files are GGML format model files for Jon Durbin's Airoboros 7B GPT4.

GGML files are for CPU + GPU inference using llama.cpp and libraries and UIs which support this format, such as:

• text-generation-webui
• KoboldCpp
• ParisNeo/GPT4All-UI
• llama-cpp-python
• ctransformers

Repositories available

• 4-bit GPTQ models for GPU inference
• 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8-bit GGML models for CPU+GPU inference
• Unquantised fp16 model in pytorch format, for GPU inference and for further conversions

Compatibility

Original llama.cpp quant methods: q4_0, q4_1, q5_0, q5_1, q8_0

I have quantized these 'original' quantisation methods using an older version of llama.cpp so that they remain compatible with llama.cpp as of May 19th, commit 2d5db48.

They should be compatible with all current UIs and libraries that use llama.cpp, such as those listed at the top of this README.

New k-quant methods: q2_K, q3_K_S, q3_K_M, q3_K_L, q4_K_S, q4_K_M, q5_K_S, q6_K

These new quantisation methods are only compatible with llama.cpp as of June 6th, commit 2d43387.

They will NOT be compatible with koboldcpp, text-generation-ui, and other UIs and libraries yet. Support is expected to come over the next few days.

Explanation of the new k-quant methods

The new methods available are:

• GGML_TYPE_Q2_K - "type-1" 2-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weight. Block scales and mins are quantized with 4 bits. This ends up effectively using 2.5625 bits per weight (bpw)
• GGML_TYPE_Q3_K - "type-0" 3-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 6 bits. This end up using 3.4375 bpw.
• GGML_TYPE_Q4_K - "type-1" 4-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 8 blocks, each block having 32 weights. Scales and mins are quantized with 6 bits. This ends up using 4.5 bpw.
• GGML_TYPE_Q5_K - "type-1" 5-bit quantization. Same super-block structure as GGML_TYPE_Q4_K resulting in 5.5 bpw
• GGML_TYPE_Q6_K - "type-0" 6-bit quantization. Super-blocks with 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 8 bits. This ends up using 6.5625 bpw
• GGML_TYPE_Q8_K - "type-0" 8-bit quantization. Only used for quantizing intermediate results. The difference to the existing Q8_0 is that the block size is 256. All 2-6 bit dot products are implemented for this quantization type.

Provided files

Note: the above RAM figures assume no GPU offloading. If layers are offloaded to the GPU, this will reduce RAM usage and use VRAM instead.

How to run in llama.cpp

I use the following command line; adjust for your tastes and needs:

./main -t 10 -ngl 32 -m airoboros-7B.ggmlv3.q5_0.bin --color -c 2048 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "### Instruction: Write a story about llamas\n### Response:"

Change -t 10 to the number of physical CPU cores you have. For example if your system has 8 cores/16 threads, use -t 8.

Change -ngl 32 to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.

If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the -p <PROMPT> argument with -i -ins

Thanks, and how to contribute.

Thanks to the chirper.ai team!

I've had a lot of people ask if they can contribute. I enjoy providing models and helping people, and would love to be able to spend even more time doing it, as well as expanding into new projects like fine tuning/training.

If you're able and willing to contribute it will be most gratefully received and will help me to keep providing more models, and to start work on new AI projects.

Donaters will get priority support on any and all AI/LLM/model questions and requests, access to a private Discord room, plus other benefits.

Original model card: Jon Durbin's Airoboros 7B GPT4

Overview

This is a fine-tuned 7b parameter LlaMa model, using completely synthetic training data created gpt4 via https://github.com/jondurbin/airoboros

The dataset used to fine-tune this model is available here, with a specific focus on:

• trivia
• math/reasoning (although it still sucks)
• coding
• multiple choice and fill-in-the-blank
• context-obedient question answering
• theory of mind
• misc/general

This model was fine-tuned with a fork of FastChat, and therefore uses the standard vicuna template:

USER:
[prompt]

<\s>
ASSISTANT:

The most important bit, to me, is the context obedient question answering support, without extensive prompt engineering.

Note: the example prompt response pairs below are from the 13b model, YMMV with the 7b

Usage

The easiest way to get started is to use my fork of FastChat, which is mostly the same but allows for the increased context length and adds support for multi-line inputs:

pip install git+https://github.com/jondurbin/FastChat

Then, you can invoke it like so (after downloading the model):

python -m fastchat.serve.cli
 --model-path airoboros-7b-gpt4 \
 --temperature 0.5 \
 --max-new-tokens 4096 \
 --context-length 4096 \
 --conv-template vicuna_v1.1 \
 --no-history

Context obedient question answering

By obedient, I mean the model was trained to ignore what it thinks it knows, and uses the context to answer the question. The model was also tuned to limit the values to the provided context as much as possible to reduce hallucinations.

The format for a closed-context prompt is as follows:

BEGININPUT
BEGINCONTEXT
url: https://some.web.site/123
date: 2023-06-01
... other metdata ...
ENDCONTEXT
[insert your text blocks here]
ENDINPUT
[add as many other blocks, in the exact same format]
BEGININSTRUCTION
[insert your instruction(s). The model was tuned with single questions, paragraph format, lists, etc.]
ENDINSTRUCTION

Here's a trivial, but important example to prove the point:

BEGININPUT
BEGINCONTEXT
date: 2021-01-01
url: https://web.site/123
ENDCONTEXT
In a shocking turn of events, blueberries are now green, but will be sticking with the same name.
ENDINPUT
BEGININSTRUCTION
What color are bluberries? Source?
ENDINSTRUCTION

And the response:

Blueberries are now green.
Source:
date: 2021-01-01
url: https://web.site/123

Other stuff

Better coding

Example:

Create a python application with the following requirements:
- Asyncio FastAPI webserver
- ping endpoint that returns the current date in JSON format
- file upload endpoint, which calculates the file's sha256 checksum, and checks postgres to deduplicate
