MPT-7B-8k
Same as MPT-7B-8K but with gradient checkpointing so you can LORA/QLORA. Not tested yet.
Original announcement from MosaicML team below:
MPT-7B-8k is a decoder-style transformer pretrained starting from MPT-7B, but updating the sequence length to 8k and training for an additional 500B tokens, resulting in a total of 1.5T tokens of text and code. This model was trained by MosaicML.
MPT-7B-8k is part of the family of Mosaic Pretrained Transformer (MPT) models, which use a modified transformer architecture optimized for efficient training and inference.
These architectural changes include performance-optimized layer implementations and the elimination of context length limits by replacing positional embeddings with Attention with Linear Biases (ALiBi). Thanks to these modifications, MPT models can be trained with high throughput efficiency and stable convergence. MPT models can also be served efficiently with both standard HuggingFace pipelines and NVIDIA's FasterTransformer.
This model uses the MosaicML LLM codebase, which can be found in the llm-foundry repository. It was trained by MosaicML’s NLP team on the MosaicML platform for LLM pretraining, finetuning, and inference.
How is this model different?
MPT-7B-8k is
- Licensed for the possibility of commercial use.
- Trained on a large amount of data (1.5T tokens like XGen vs. 1T for LLaMA, 1T for MPT-7B, 300B for Pythia, 300B for OpenLLaMA, and 800B for StableLM).
- Prepared to handle long inputs thanks to ALiBi. With ALiBi, the model can extrapolate beyond the 8k training sequence length to up to 10k, and with a few million tokens it can be finetuned to extrapolate much further.
- Capable of fast training and inference via FlashAttention and FasterTransformer
- Equipped with highly efficient open-source training code via the llm-foundry repository

How to Use
This model is best used with the MosaicML llm-foundry repository for training and finetuning.
import transformers
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
'mosaicml/mpt-7b-8k',
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 on GPU (cuda:0) with attn_impl='triton' and with bfloat16 precision:
import torch
import transformers
name = 'mosaicml/mpt-7b-8k'
config = transformers.AutoConfig.from_pretrained(name, trust_remote_code=True)
config.attn_config['attn_impl'] = 'triton'
config.init_device = 'cuda:0' # For fast initialization directly on GPU!
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
name,
config=config,
torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, # Load model weights in bfloat16
trust_remote_code=True
)
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:
import transformers
name = 'mosaicml/mpt-7b-8k'
config = transformers.AutoConfig.from_pretrained(name, trust_remote_code=True)
config.max_seq_len = 10000 # (input + output) tokens can now be up to 10000
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
name,
config=config,
trust_remote_code=True
)
This model was trained with the MPT-7B-8k tokenizer which is identical to the EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b tokenizer.
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('mosaicml/mpt-7b-8k')
The model can then be used, for example, within a text-generation pipeline.
Note: when running Torch modules in lower precision, it is best practice to use the torch.autocast context manager.
from transformers import pipeline
with torch.autocast('cuda', dtype=torch.bfloat16):
inputs = tokenizer('Here is a recipe for vegan banana bread:\n', return_tensors="pt").to('cuda')
outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=100)
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs, skip_special_tokens=True))
# or using the HF pipeline
pipe = pipeline('text-generation', model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer, device='cuda:0')
with torch.autocast('cuda', dtype=torch.bfloat16):
print(
pipe('Here is a recipe for vegan banana bread:\n',
max_new_tokens=100,
do_sample=True,
use_cache=True))

Training Data
Streaming Datasets
Data was formatted using the MosaicML StreamingDataset library to host our data in object storage and efficiently stream it to our compute cluster during training. StreamingDataset obviates the need to download the whole dataset before starting training, and allows instant resumption of training from any point in the dataset.
Data Mix
The model was trained for ___T tokens. First it was trained for 1T tokens (with batch size 1760 and sequence length 2048) on the following data mix:

Data Mix for Additional 500B Tokens Used to Further Train MPT-7B-8k
We took 80B tokens from document samples that were longer than 4096 tokens, and 120B tokens with varying document sample lengths that matched the "baseline" length distribution for a total of 200B tokens in a single dataset. We then trained MPT-7B for 500B tokens with a maximum sequence length of 8192, resulting in MPT-7B-8k. Since we trained for 500B tokens using 200B tokens, nearly every subset was trained on for exactly 2.5 epochs.

Samples for each batch were selected from one of the datasets with the probability specified above. The examples were shuffled within each dataset, and each example was constructed from as many sequences from that dataset as were necessary to fill the 2048 sequence length.
The data was tokenized using the EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b tokenizer. This BPE tokenizer has a number of desirable characteristics, most of which are relevant for tokenizing code: (1) It was trained on a diverse mix of data that includes code (The Pile) (2) It applies consistent space delimitation, unlike the GPT2 tokenizer which tokenizes inconsistently depending on the presence of prefix spaces (3) It contains tokens for repeated space characters, which allows superior compression of text with large amounts of repeated space characters.
The model vocabulary size of 50432 was set to be a multiple of 128 (as in MEGATRON-LM), model flop utilization (MFU) increased by up to four percentage points.
Training Configuration
This model was trained on 440 A100-40GBs for about 9.5 days using the MosaicML Platform. The model was trained with sharded data parallelism using FSDP and used the LION optimizer.
Limitations and Biases
The following language is modified from EleutherAI's GPT-NeoX-20B
MPT-7B-8k is not intended for deployment without finetuning. It should not be used for human-facing interactions without further guardrails and user consent.
MPT-7B-8k can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate information. MPT-7B-8k 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.
