13B Thorns L2 - AWQ
- Model creator: CalderaAI
- Original model: 13B Thorns L2
Description
This repo contains AWQ model files for CalderaAI's 13B Thorns L2.
About AWQ
AWQ is an efficient, accurate and blazing-fast low-bit weight quantization method, currently supporting 4-bit quantization. Compared to GPTQ, it offers faster Transformers-based inference.
It is also now supported by continuous batching server vLLM, allowing use of AWQ models for high-throughput concurrent inference in multi-user server scenarios. Note that, at the time of writing, overall throughput is still lower than running vLLM with unquantised models, however using AWQ enables using much smaller GPUs which can lead to easier deployment and overall cost savings. For example, a 70B model can be run on 1 x 48GB GPU instead of 2 x 80GB.
Repositories available
- AWQ model(s) for GPU inference.
- GPTQ models for GPU inference, with multiple quantisation parameter options.
- 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8-bit GGUF models for CPU+GPU inference
- CalderaAI's original unquantised fp16 model in pytorch format, for GPU inference and for further conversions

Provided files and AWQ parameters
For my first release of AWQ models, I am releasing 128g models only. I will consider adding 32g as well if there is interest, and once I have done perplexity and evaluation comparisons, but at this time 32g models are still not fully tested with AutoAWQ and vLLM.
Models are released as sharded safetensors files.
Serving this model from vLLM
Documentation on installing and using vLLM can be found here.
- When using vLLM as a server, pass the
--quantization awqparameter, for example:
python3 python -m vllm.entrypoints.api_server --model TheBloke/13B-Thorns-L2-AWQ --quantization awq
When using vLLM from Python code, pass the quantization=awq parameter, for example:
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams
prompts = [
"Hello, my name is",
"The president of the United States is",
"The capital of France is",
"The future of AI is",
]
sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.8, top_p=0.95)
llm = LLM(model="TheBloke/13B-Thorns-L2-AWQ", quantization="awq")
outputs = llm.generate(prompts, sampling_params)
# Print the outputs.
for output in outputs:
prompt = output.prompt
generated_text = output.outputs[0].text
print(f"Prompt: {prompt!r}, Generated text: {generated_text!r}")
How to use this AWQ model from Python code
Install the necessary packages
Requires: AutoAWQ 0.0.2 or later
pip3 install autoawq
If you have problems installing AutoAWQ using the pre-built wheels, install it from source instead:
pip3 uninstall -y autoawq
git clone https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ
cd AutoAWQ
pip3 install .
You can then try the following example code
from awq import AutoAWQForCausalLM
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
model_name_or_path = "TheBloke/13B-Thorns-L2-AWQ"
# Load model
model = AutoAWQForCausalLM.from_quantized(model_name_or_path, fuse_layers=True,
trust_remote_code=False, safetensors=True)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path, trust_remote_code=False)
prompt = "Tell me about AI"

Compatibility
The files provided are tested to work with AutoAWQ, and vLLM.
Huggingface Text Generation Inference (TGI) is not yet compatible with AWQ, but a PR is open which should bring support soon: TGI PR #781.

Original model card: CalderaAI's 13B Thorns L2
13B-Thorns [An Instruct Based LLaMAv2-13B Ensemble Merge | Alpaca Format]
WARNING - This Model Is Uncensored And Has Not Been Fully Tested For Toxicity. This Is A Research Artifact Intended For Responsible Use. May Generate Offensive And Misleading Content. Do Not Treat Language Sythesized By This Research Artifact As Advice Or As Factual In Any Domain. CalderaAI Strictly Does Not Condone Use Of This Release Outside The Domain Of Research Or Entertainment.
Composition:
13B-Thorns-l2 utilizes a new merge method called Spherical Linear Interpolation. By merging data as a spherical vector store concept, a combined pair of models have a smoother transition between feature spaces that are characteristic of each model, resulting in a more coherent fusion of both model's unique strengths.
Our implementation of Spherical Linear Interpolation for LLM merging: https://github.com/Digitous/LLM-SLERP-Merge
Note: Skip to the TL;DR section for the finalized design this model is comprised of.
Thorns' design is based on the concept of purposed segmentation, in this case we have two-
--Logic Segment (MK1):
Fine-Tuned parent models were hand selected and reviewed for datasets, performance, least restrictive censorship, and community perception of coherence and utility. Ultimately we decided on four models to merge in pairs of two, then combine those offspring for a quad merged logic cluster. All four models were merged using the SLERP method. Yes the name is annoyingly funny. SLERP.
--Creativity and Imagination Segment (MK1):
Flawed first approach (a takeaway on LoRAs);
We then decided the creativity and imagination segment could be as simple as one model, especially if its dataset design, tagging, training quality, and proven track record is above and beyond. KoboldAI's Holodeck model is the result of a dataset that is years of collected, organized, tagged, deduped, and cleaned data. Holodeck alone would be beyond sufficient for the segment we view as the 'subconscious' segment of the model ensemble, however we applied the LIMA RP PEFT to it for extended variety of a different kind. That's where we got carried away. LoRAs offer unique augmentation to model merge possibilities, and the decision was made to take the result of that segment and add two more LoRAs to see if they further extended Holodeck, settling on Kimiko and Janine; two very different RP and conversational LoRAs. This was a bad move, as when we SLERP merged that version of the imagination segment to the logic segment the result was a ranting mess that followed instructions but was the equivalent of a child scribbling all over the place and ignoring obvious chains of logic and a mushy amalgam of awkward creative behavior that had no semblance of coherency. The composite model was slated to be named 13B-Astronomicon; after all the work that went into it and the flatly bland result, the name was abandoned and the next move, which is a byproduct experiment of Astronomicon is what became Thorn.. because this project became a thorn in our side.
Because pain is fun, and persistence in design iteration is the only way forward, we reworked our approach to both segment ensembles following one idea - all three Roleplay and Conversational LoRAs stay no matter what because sure why not add arbitrary rules to the redesign phase at this point.
TL;DR Section
--Finalized Logic and Creativity Segments (MK2):
After a few meetings with our top teams of model hacking memegineers we drafted Thorns MK2, which was prompty fast tracked for production by the Roko's Basilisk Shadow Council.
..Actually I just redid the merge like this:
-Model Merge Ensemble Key-
{} = SLERP Merge | [] = PEFT Merge | () = Composite Model
({({NousHermes+Chronos}[Kimiko])+({Platupus+AiroborosM2.0}[Janine])}{Holodeck[LIMA RP]})
Findings:
-Strategically fusing LoRAs to models that stand to gain the most from them and then merging the result into the ensemble is exceptionally effective.
-Stacking the exact same LoRAs onto one model then merging that into the ensemble results in noisy garbage.
