# StableVicuna-13B-GPTQ

This repo contains 4bit GPTQ format quantised models of [CarterAI's StableVicuna 13B](https://huggingface.co/CarperAI/stable-vicuna-13b-delta).

It is the result of first merging the deltas from the above repository with the original Llama 13B weights, then quantising to 4bit using [GPTQ-for-LLaMa](https://github.com/qwopqwop200/GPTQ-for-LLaMa).

## Repositories available

* [4bit GPTQ models for GPU inference](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/stable-vicuna-13B-GPTQ).
* [4bit and 5bit GGML models for CPU inference](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/stable-vicuna-13B-GGML).
* [Unquantised 16bit model in HF format](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/stable-vicuna-13B-HF).

## PROMPT TEMPLATE

This model works best with the following prompt template:

```
### Human: your prompt here
### Assistant:
```

## GIBBERISH OUTPUT IN `text-generation-webui`?

Please read the Provided Files section below. You should use `stable-vicuna-13B-GPTQ-4bit.no-act-order.safetensors` unless you are able to use the latest GPTQ-for-LLaMa code.

If you're using a text-generation-webui one click installer, you MUST use `stable-vicuna-13B-GPTQ-4bit.no-act-order.safetensors`.

## Provided files

Two files are provided. **The second file will not work unless you use a recent version of GPTQ-for-LLaMa**

Specifically, the second file uses `--act-order` for maximum quantisation quality and will not work with oobabooga's fork of GPTQ-for-LLaMa. Therefore at this time it will also not work with `text-generation-webui` one-click installers.

Unless you are able to use the latest GPTQ-for-LLaMa code, please use `wizardLM-7B-GPTQ-4bit-128g.no-act-order.safetensors`.
 
* `stable-vicuna-13B-GPTQ-4bit.no-act-order.safetensors`
  * Works with all versions of GPTQ-for-LLaMa code, both Triton and CUDA branches
  * Works with text-generation-webui one-click-installers
  * Works on Windows
  * Parameters: Groupsize = 128g. No act-order.
  * Command used to create the GPTQ:
    ```
    CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python3 llama.py stable-vicuna-13B-HF c4 --wbits 4 --true-sequential --groupsize 128 --save_safetensors stable-vicuna-13B-GPTQ-4bit.no-act-order.safetensors
    ```
* `stable-vicuna-13B-GPTQ-4bit.act-order.safetensors`
  * Only works with recent GPTQ-for-LLaMa code
  * **Does not** work with text-generation-webui one-click-installers
  * Parameters: Groupsize = 128g. act-order.
  * Offers highest quality quantisation, but requires recent GPTQ-for-LLaMa code
  * Command used to create the GPTQ:
    ```
    CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python3 llama.py stable-vicuna-13B-HF c4 --wbits 4 --true-sequential --act-order --groupsize 128 --save_safetensors stable-vicuna-13B-GPTQ-4bit.act-order.safetensors
    ```

## How to run in `text-generation-webui`

File `stable-vicuna-13B-GPTQ-4bit.no-act-order.safetensors` can be loaded the same as any other GPTQ file, without requiring any updates to [oobaboogas text-generation-webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui).

[Instructions on using GPTQ 4bit files in text-generation-webui are here](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/wiki/GPTQ-models-\(4-bit-mode\)).

The other `safetensors` model file was created using `--act-order` to give the maximum possible quantisation quality, but this means it requires that the latest GPTQ-for-LLaMa is used inside the UI.

If you want to use the act-order `safetensors` files and need to update the Triton branch of GPTQ-for-LLaMa, here are the commands I used to clone the Triton branch of GPTQ-for-LLaMa, clone text-generation-webui, and install GPTQ into the UI:
```
# Clone text-generation-webui, if you don't already have it
git clone https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
# Make a repositories directory
mkdir text-generation-webui/repositories
cd text-generation-webui/repositories
# Clone the latest GPTQ-for-LLaMa code inside text-generation-webui
git clone https://github.com/qwopqwop200/GPTQ-for-LLaMa
```

Then install this model into `text-generation-webui/models` and launch the UI as follows:
```
cd text-generation-webui
python server.py --model stable-vicuna-13B-GPTQ --wbits 4 --groupsize 128 --model_type Llama # add any other command line args you want
```

The above commands assume you have installed all dependencies for GPTQ-for-LLaMa and text-generation-webui. Please see their respective repositories for further information.

If you can't update GPTQ-for-LLaMa or don't want to, you can use `stable-vicuna-13B-GPTQ-4bit.no-act-order.safetensors` as mentioned above, which should work without any upgrades to text-generation-webui.

## Model Description

StableVicuna-13B is a [Vicuna-13B v0](https://huggingface.co/lmsys/vicuna-13b-delta-v0) model fine-tuned using reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) via Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) on various conversational and instructional datasets.

## Training

### Training Dataset

StableVicuna-13B is fine-tuned on a mix of three datasets. [OpenAssistant Conversations Dataset (OASST1)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/OpenAssistant/oasst1), a human-generated, human-annotated assistant-style conversation corpus consisting of 161,443 messages distributed across 66,497 conversation trees, in 35 different languages;
[GPT4All Prompt Generations](https://huggingface.co/datasets/nomic-ai/gpt4all_prompt_generations), a dataset of 400k prompts and responses generated by GPT-4; and [Alpaca](https://huggingface.co/datasets/tatsu-lab/alpaca),  a dataset of 52,000 instructions and demonstrations generated by OpenAI's text-davinci-003 engine.

The reward model used during RLHF was also trained on [OpenAssistant Conversations Dataset (OASST1)](https://huggingface.co/datasets/OpenAssistant/oasst1) along with two other datasets: [Anthropic HH-RLHF](https://huggingface.co/datasets/Anthropic/hh-rlhf), a dataset of preferences about AI assistant helpfulness and harmlessness; and [Stanford Human Preferences Dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/stanfordnlp/SHP) a dataset of 385K collective human preferences over responses to questions/instructions in 18 different subject areas, from cooking to legal advice.

### Training Procedure

`CarperAI/stable-vicuna-13b-delta` was trained using PPO as implemented in [`trlX`](https://github.com/CarperAI/trlx/blob/main/trlx/trainer/accelerate_ppo_trainer.py) with the following configuration:

## Use and Limitations

### Intended Use

This model is intended to be used for text generation with a focus on conversational tasks. Users may further fine-tune the model on their own data to improve the model's performance on their specific tasks in accordance with the non-commercial [license](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/).

### Limitations and bias

The base LLaMA model is trained on various data, some of which may contain offensive, harmful, and biased content that can lead to toxic behavior. See Section 5.1 of the LLaMA [paper](https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.13971). We have not performed any studies to determine how fine-tuning on the aforementioned datasets affect the model's behavior and toxicity. Do not treat chat responses from this model as a substitute for human judgment or as a source of truth. Please use responsibly.
