MPT-7B-Instruct GGML

This is GGML format quantised 4-bit, 5-bit and 8-bit GGML models of MosaicML's MPT-7B-Instruct .

This repo is the result of converting to GGML and quantising.

Please note that these MPT GGMLs are not compatbile with llama.cpp . Please see below for a list of tools known to work with these model files.

Repositories available

• MPT-7B: 4-bit, 5-bit and 8-bit GGML models for CPU (+CUDA) inference .
• MPT-7B-Instruct: 4-bit, 5-bit and 8-bit GGML models for CPU (+CUDA) inference .
• MPT-7B-Storywriter: 4-bit, 5-bit and 8-bit GGML models for CPU (+CUDA) inference .

Provided files

Compatibilty

These files are not compatible with llama.cpp.

Currently they can be used with:

• KoboldCpp, a powerful inference engine based on llama.cpp, with good UI: KoboldCpp
• The ctransformers Python library, which includes LangChain support: ctransformers
• The GPT4All-UI which uses ctransformers: GPT4All-UI
• rustformers' llm
• The example mpt binary provided with ggml

As other options become available I will endeavour to update them here (do let me know in the Community tab if I've missed something!)

Tutorial for using GPT4All-UI

• Text tutorial, written by Lucas3DCG
• Video tutorial, by GPT4All-UI's author ParisNeo

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.

MPT-7B-Instruct

MPT-7B-Instruct is a model for short-form instruction following. It is built by finetuning MPT-7B on a dataset derived from the Databricks Dolly-15k and the Anthropic Helpful and Harmless (HH-RLHF) datasets.

• Demo on Hugging Face Spaces

This model was trained by MosaicML and follows a modified decoder-only transformer architecture.

Example Question/Instruction

Longboi24 :

What is a quoll?

MPT-7B-Instruct :

A Quoll (pronounced “cool”) is one of Australia’s native carnivorous marsupial mammals, which are also known as macropods or wallabies in other parts around Asia and South America

How to Use

Note: This model requires that trust_remote_code=True be passed to the from_pretrained method. This is because we use a custom model architecture that is not yet part of the transformers package.

It includes options for many training efficiency features such as FlashAttention (Dao et al. 2022) , ALiBi , QK LayerNorm, and more.

import transformers
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
  'mosaicml/mpt-7b-instruct',
  trust_remote_code=True
)

Note: This model requires that trust_remote_code=True be passed to the from_pretrained method. This is because we use a custom MPT model architecture that is not yet part of the Hugging Face transformers package. MPT includes options for many training efficiency features such as FlashAttention , ALiBi , QK LayerNorm , and more.

To use the optimized triton implementation of FlashAttention, you can load the model with attn_impl='triton' and move the model to bfloat16 :

config = transformers.AutoConfig.from_pretrained(
  'mosaicml/mpt-7b-instruct',
  trust_remote_code=True
)
config.attn_config['attn_impl'] = 'triton'

model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
  'mosaicml/mpt-7b-instruct',
  config=config,
  torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
  trust_remote_code=True
)
model.to(device='cuda:0')

Although the model was trained with a sequence length of 2048, ALiBi enables users to increase the maximum sequence length during finetuning and/or inference. For example:

config = transformers.AutoConfig.from_pretrained(
  'mosaicml/mpt-7b-instruct',
  trust_remote_code=True
)
config.update({"max_seq_len": 4096})
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
  'mosaicml/mpt-7b-instruct',
  config=config,
  trust_remote_code=True
)

This model was trained with the EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b tokenizer.

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b")

Model Description

The architecture is a modification of a standard decoder-only transformer.

The model has been modified from a standard transformer in the following ways:

• It uses FlashAttention
• It uses ALiBi (Attention with Linear Biases) and does not use positional embeddings
• It does not use biases

PreTraining Data

For more details on the pretraining process, see MPT-7B .

The data was tokenized using the EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b tokenizer.

Limitations and Biases

The following language is modified from EleutherAI's GPT-NeoX-20B

MPT-7B-Instruct can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate information. MPT-7B-Instruct was trained on various public datasets. While great efforts have been taken to clean the pretraining data, it is possible that this model could generate lewd, biased or otherwise offensive outputs.
