Falcon-7B-Instruct GPTQ

This repo contains an experimantal GPTQ 4bit model for Falcon-7B-Instruct.

It is the result of quantising to 4bit using AutoGPTQ.

EXPERIMENTAL

Please note this is an experimental first model. Support for it is currently quite limited.

To use it you will require:

AutoGPTQ, from the latest main branch and compiled with pip install .
pip install einops

You can then use it immediately from Python code - see example code below

text-generation-webui

There is also provisional AutoGPTQ support in text-generation-webui.

However at the time I'm writing this, a commit is needed to text-generation-webui to enable it to load this model.

I have opened a PR here; once this is merged, text-generation-webui will support this GPTQ model.

To get it working before the PR is merged, you will need to:

Edit text-generation-webui/modules/AutoGPTQ_loader.py
Make the following change:

Find the line that says:

'use_safetensors': use_safetensors,

And after it, add:

'trust_remote_code': shared.args.trust_remote_code,

Once you are done the file should look like this

Then save and close the file, and launch text-generation-webui as described below

How to download and use this model in text-generation-webui

Launch text-generation-webui with the following command-line arguments: --autogptq --trust_remote_code
Click the Model tab.
Under Download custom model or LoRA, enter TheBloke/falcon-7B-instruct-GPTQ.
Click Download.
Wait until it says it's finished downloading.
Click the Refresh icon next to Model in the top left.
In the Model drop-down: choose the model you just downloaded, falcon-7B-instruct-GPTQ.
Once it says it's loaded, click the Text Generation tab and enter a prompt!

About `trust_remote_code`

Please be aware that this command line argument causes Python code provided by Falcon to be executed on your machine.

This code is required at the moment because Falcon is too new to be supported by Hugging Face transformers. At some point in the future transformers will support the model natively, and then trust_remote_code will no longer be needed.

In this repo you can see two .py files - these are the files that get executed. They are copied from the base repo at Falcon-7B-Instruct.

Simple Python example code

To run this code you need to install AutoGPTQ from source:

git clone https://github.com/PanQiWei/AutoGPTQ
cd AutoGPTQ
pip install . # This step requires CUDA toolkit installed

And install einops:

pip install einops

You can then run this example code:

import torch
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
from auto_gptq import AutoGPTQForCausalLM

# Download the model from HF and store it locally, then reference its location here:
quantized_model_dir = "/path/to/falcon7b-instruct-gptq"

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(quantized_model_dir, use_fast=False)

model = AutoGPTQForCausalLM.from_quantized(quantized_model_dir, device="cuda:0", use_triton=False, use_safetensors=True, torch_dtype=torch.float32, trust_remote_code=True)

prompt = "Write a story about llamas"
prompt_template = f"### Instruction: {prompt}\n### Response:"

tokens = tokenizer(prompt_template, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda:0").input_ids
output = model.generate(input_ids=tokens, max_new_tokens=100, do_sample=True, temperature=0.8)
print(tokenizer.decode(output[0]))

Provided files

Falcon-7B-Instruct-GPTQ-4bit-128g.safetensors

This will work with AutoGPTQ as of commit 3cb1bf5 (3cb1bf5a6d43a06dc34c6442287965d1838303d3)

It was created with groupsize 64 to give higher inference quality, and without desc_act (act-order) to increase inference speed.

Falcon-7B-Instruct-GPTQ-4bit-128g.safetensors
- Works only with latest AutoGPTQ CUDA, compiled from source as of commit 3cb1bf5
  - At this time it does not work with AutoGPTQ Triton, but support will hopefully be added in time.
- Works with text-generation-webui using --autogptq --trust_remote_code
  - At this time it does NOT work with one-click-installers
- Does not work with any version of GPTQ-for-LLaMa
- Parameters: Groupsize = 64. No act-order.

✨ Original model card: Falcon-7B-Instruct

Falcon-7B-Instruct is a 7B parameters causal decoder-only model built by TII based on Falcon-7B and finetuned on a mixture of chat/instruct datasets. It is made available under the TII Falcon LLM License.

Paper coming soon 😊.

Why use Falcon-7B-Instruct?

You are looking for a ready-to-use chat/instruct model based on Falcon-7B.
Falcon-7B is a strong base model, outperforming comparable open-source models (e.g., MPT-7B, StableLM, RedPajama etc.), thanks to being trained on 1,500B tokens of RefinedWeb enhanced with curated corpora. See the OpenLLM Leaderboard.
It features an architecture optimized for inference, with FlashAttention (Dao et al., 2022) and multiquery (Shazeer et al., 2019).

💬 This is an instruct model, which may not be ideal for further finetuning. If you are interested in building your own instruct/chat model, we recommend starting from Falcon-7B.

🔥 Looking for an even more powerful model? Falcon-40B-Instruct is Falcon-7B-Instruct's big brother!

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

pipeline = transformers.pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model,
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    trust_remote_code=True,
    device_map="auto",
)
sequences = pipeline(
   "Girafatron is obsessed with giraffes, the most glorious animal on the face of this Earth. Giraftron believes all other animals are irrelevant when compared to the glorious majesty of the giraffe.\nDaniel: Hello, Girafatron!\nGirafatron:",
    max_length=200,
    do_sample=True,
    top_k=10,
    num_return_sequences=1,
    eos_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id,
)
for seq in sequences:
    print(f"Result: {seq['generated_text']}")

💥 Falcon LLMs require PyTorch 2.0 for use with transformers!

Uses

Direct Use

Falcon-7B-Instruct has been finetuned on a mixture of instruct and chat datasets.

Out-of-Scope Use

Production use without adequate assessment of risks and mitigation; any use cases which may be considered irresponsible or harmful.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations

Falcon-7B-Instruct is mostly trained on English data, and will not generalize appropriately to other languages. Furthermore, as it is trained on a large-scale corpora representative of the web, it will carry the stereotypes and biases commonly encountered online.

Recommendations

We recommend users of Falcon-7B-Instruct to develop guardrails and to take appropriate precautions for any production use.

Training Details

Training Data

Falcon-7B-Instruct was finetuned on a 250M tokens mixture of instruct/chat datasets.

Data source	Fraction	Tokens	Description
Bai ze	65%	164M	chat
GPT4All	25%	62M	instruct
GPTeacher	5%	11M	instruct
RefinedWeb-English	5%	13M	massive web crawl

The data was tokenized with the Falcon-7B/40B tokenizer.

Evaluation

Paper coming soon.

See the OpenLLM Leaderboard for early results.

Note that this model variant is not optimized for NLP benchmarks.

Technical Specifications

Model Architecture and Objective

Falcon-7B is a causal decoder-only model trained on a causal language modeling task (i.e., predict the next token).

The architecture is broadly adapted from the GPT-3 paper (Brown et al., 2020), with the following differences:

Positionnal embeddings: rotary (Su et al., 2021);
Attention: multiquery (Shazeer et al., 2019) and FlashAttention (Dao et al., 2022);
Decoder-block: parallel attention/MLP with a single layer norm.

Hyperparameter	Value	Comment
Layers	32
`d_model`	4544	Increased to compensate for multiquery
`head_dim`	64	Reduced to optimise for FlashAttention
Vocabulary	65024
Sequence length	2048

Compute Infrastructure

Hardware

Falcon-7B-Instruct was trained on AWS SageMaker, on 32 A100 40GB GPUs in P4d instances.

Software

Falcon-7B-Instruct was trained a custom distributed training codebase, Gigatron. It uses a 3D parallelism approach combined with ZeRO and high-performance Triton kernels (FlashAttention, etc.)
