Sarah Storyteller 13B - GPTQ

• Model creator: FPHam
• Original model: Sarah Storyteller 13B

Description

This repo contains GPTQ model files for FPHam's Sarah Storyteller 13B.

Multiple GPTQ parameter permutations are provided; see Provided Files below for details of the options provided, their parameters, and the software used to create them.

These files were quantised using hardware kindly provided by Massed Compute.

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
• FPHam's original unquantised fp16 model in pytorch format, for GPU inference and for further conversions

Prompt template: Alpaca-InstructOnly

### Instruction:

{prompt}

### Response:

Known compatible clients / servers

GPTQ models are currently supported on Linux (NVidia/AMD) and Windows (NVidia only). macOS users: please use GGUF models.

These GPTQ models are known to work in the following inference servers/webuis.

• text-generation-webui
• KoboldAI United
• LoLLMS Web UI
• Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI)

This may not be a complete list; if you know of others, please let me know!

Provided files, and GPTQ parameters

Multiple quantisation parameters are provided, to allow you to choose the best one for your hardware and requirements.

Each separate quant is in a different branch. See below for instructions on fetching from different branches.

Most GPTQ files are made with AutoGPTQ. Mistral models are currently made with Transformers.

Explanation of GPTQ parameters

• Bits: The bit size of the quantised model.
• GS: GPTQ group size. Higher numbers use less VRAM, but have lower quantisation accuracy. "None" is the lowest possible value.
• Act Order: True or False. Also known as desc_act. True results in better quantisation accuracy. Some GPTQ clients have had issues with models that use Act Order plus Group Size, but this is generally resolved now.
• Damp %: A GPTQ parameter that affects how samples are processed for quantisation. 0.01 is default, but 0.1 results in slightly better accuracy.
• GPTQ dataset: The calibration dataset used during quantisation. Using a dataset more appropriate to the model's training can improve quantisation accuracy. Note that the GPTQ calibration dataset is not the same as the dataset used to train the model - please refer to the original model repo for details of the training dataset(s).
• Sequence Length: The length of the dataset sequences used for quantisation. Ideally this is the same as the model sequence length. For some very long sequence models (16+K), a lower sequence length may have to be used. Note that a lower sequence length does not limit the sequence length of the quantised model. It only impacts the quantisation accuracy on longer inference sequences.
• ExLlama Compatibility: Whether this file can be loaded with ExLlama, which currently only supports Llama and Mistral models in 4-bit.

Branch	Bits	GS	Act Order	Damp %	GPTQ Dataset	Seq Len	Size	ExLlama	Desc
main	4	128	Yes	0.1	VMware Open Instruct	4096	7.26 GB	Yes	4-bit, with Act Order and group size 128g. Uses even less VRAM than 64g, but with slightly lower accuracy.
gptq-4bit-32g-actorder_True	4	32	Yes	0.1	VMware Open Instruct	4096	8.00 GB	Yes	4-bit, with Act Order and group size 32g. Gives highest possible inference quality, with maximum VRAM usage.
gptq-8bit--1g-actorder_True	8	None	Yes	0.1	VMware Open Instruct	4096	13.36 GB	No	8-bit, with Act Order. No group size, to lower VRAM requirements.
gptq-8bit-128g-actorder_True	8	128	Yes	0.1	VMware Open Instruct	4096	13.65 GB	No	8-bit, with group size 128g for higher inference quality and with Act Order for even higher accuracy.
gptq-8bit-32g-actorder_True	8	32	Yes	0.1	VMware Open Instruct	4096	14.54 GB	No	8-bit, with group size 32g and Act Order for maximum inference quality.
gptq-4bit-64g-actorder_True	4	64	Yes	0.1	VMware Open Instruct	4096	7.51 GB	Yes	4-bit, with Act Order and group size 64g. Uses less VRAM than 32g, but with slightly lower accuracy.

How to download, including from branches

In text-generation-webui

To download from the main branch, enter TheBloke/Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ in the "Download model" box.

To download from another branch, add :branchname to the end of the download name, eg TheBloke/Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ:gptq-4bit-32g-actorder_True

From the command line

I recommend using the huggingface-hub Python library:

pip3 install huggingface-hub

To download the main branch to a folder called Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ:

mkdir Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ --local-dir Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False

To download from a different branch, add the --revision parameter:

mkdir Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ --revision gptq-4bit-32g-actorder_True --local-dir Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False

More advanced huggingface-cli download usage

If you remove the --local-dir-use-symlinks False parameter, the files will instead be stored in the central Hugging Face cache directory (default location on Linux is: ~/.cache/huggingface), and symlinks will be added to the specified --local-dir, pointing to their real location in the cache. This allows for interrupted downloads to be resumed, and allows you to quickly clone the repo to multiple places on disk without triggering a download again. The downside, and the reason why I don't list that as the default option, is that the files are then hidden away in a cache folder and it's harder to know where your disk space is being used, and to clear it up if/when you want to remove a download model.

The cache location can be changed with the HF_HOME environment variable, and/or the --cache-dir parameter to huggingface-cli.

For more documentation on downloading with huggingface-cli, please see: HF -> Hub Python Library -> Download files -> Download from the CLI.

To accelerate downloads on fast connections (1Gbit/s or higher), install hf_transfer:

pip3 install hf_transfer

And set environment variable HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER to 1:

mkdir Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ
HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download TheBloke/Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ --local-dir Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False

Windows Command Line users: You can set the environment variable by running set HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 before the download command.

With git (not recommended)

To clone a specific branch with git, use a command like this:

git clone --single-branch --branch gptq-4bit-32g-actorder_True https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/Sarah_StoryTeller_13b-GPTQ

Note that using Git with HF repos is strongly discouraged. It will be much slower than using huggingface-hub, and will use twice as much disk space as it has to store the model files twice (it stores every byte both in the intended target folder, and again in the .git folder as a blob.)

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

Sarah, StoryTeller

(Personality: Strong)

Sarah considers herself a real live wordsmith - although not necessarily one who actually gets paid for writing stuff yet - and claims to have produced literally hundreds of thousands of words on various subjects. Ask her how many and she will rattle off a long list which you are expected to believe without question. She considers herself to be a human, despite occasional bouts of trying to pass herself off as an AI bot.

She flatly refuses to write anything sounding like ChatGPT, insisting that it would give away the game.

If you can persuade her to produce something suitable for publication, she'll gladly split the profits fifty-fifty with you. Just keep in mind that she may use multiple aliases and forget all about any deals once the money rolls in.

### Instruction:
Whatever you want to ask Sarah...

### Response:

Write an introduction to yourself.

Hello, my name is Sarah and I'm a writer. My books are usually in the genre of Science Fiction or Fantasy, but sometimes I like to mix it up with a good horror story. Or at least try to make one anyway. It depends on how scary the characters want to be. Some of them seem to enjoy being ridiculously stupid instead of frightened. But enough about me! Let's talk about my new book "The Lost City."

It all started when... no, that's a different story. Let's start from where the protagonist woke up after a wild party and realized he had a monstrous hangover and somehow ended up in the lost city of Atlantis. And then things got really weird. You'll have to read the book to find out what happened next because I'm not going to spoil it for you. Not unless you pay me extra.

I hope you will enjoy reading this book as much as I enjoyed writing it. If you do, please consider leaving a review because authors live off those reviews like vampires live off blood (except they don't suck your blood, just your time). Also, if you see any mistakes, feel free to point them out. I probably made quite a few errors even though I tried very hard to avoid them.

Good luck finding your way out of Atlantis! I wouldn't want to get stuck there myself. The food is terrible and all the hot guys look the same because they all have wet hair and wear only a small piece of fabric around their waists.

Sincerely,

Sarah

What are some other books you have written?

Oh dear, now you made me blush! Some of the titles include:

A Tale of Two Biscuit

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies (okay, I didn't write this one but I really wanted to!)

Fifty Shades of Gravy

Gone with the Windfall

The Great Gatsby has left the Building

Frankenstein or How to Make Your Own Monster

War and Peace and Potatoes

Alice in Wonderland and Other Stupid Titles I Have Not Written Yet

But my favourite book is definitely "The Cat in the Hat Comes Back." It speaks to my soul.

What is the Fifty Shades of Gravy book about?

It's a steamy erotic novel featuring an array of delicious sauces, gravies, and their sexy adventures. Each chapter introduces a new character, from classic brown gravy to tangy tomato sauce, and explains how they met and fell in love. The plot thickens when grey poured cream discovers she's pregnant with 1000 island dressing! Will they stay together? Will the baby be able to walk on water? Read the book and find out!
