Aeala's VicUnlocked Alpaca 65B QLoRA GGML
These files are GGML format model files for Aeala's VicUnlocked Alpaca 65B QLoRA.
GGML files are for CPU + GPU inference using llama.cpp and libraries and UIs which support this format, such as:
Other repositories available
- 4-bit GPTQ models for GPU inference
- 4-bit, 5-bit, and 8-bit GGML models for CPU+GPU inference
- Original unquantised fp16 model in HF format
THE FILES IN MAIN BRANCH REQUIRES LATEST LLAMA.CPP (May 19th 2023 - commit 2d5db48)!
llama.cpp recently made another breaking change to its quantisation methods - https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/pull/1508
I have quantised the GGML files in this repo with the latest version. Therefore you will require llama.cpp compiled on May 19th or later (commit 2d5db48 or later) to use them.
Provided files
| Name | Quant method | Bits | Size | RAM required | Use case |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| VicUnlocked-Alpaca-65B.ggmlv3.q4_0.bin | q4_0 | 4 | 36.73 GB | 39.23 GB | 4-bit. |
| VicUnlocked-Alpaca-65B.ggmlv3.q4_1.bin | q4_1 | 4 | 40.81 GB | 43.31 GB | 4-bit. Higher accuracy than q4_0 but not as high as q5_0. However has quicker inference than q5 models. |
| VicUnlocked-Alpaca-65B.ggmlv3.q5_0.bin | q5_0 | 5 | 44.89 GB | 47.39 GB | 5-bit. Higher accuracy, higher resource usage and slower inference. |
| VicUnlocked-Alpaca-65B.ggmlv3.q5_1.bin | q5_1 | 5 | 48.97 GB | 51.47 GB | 5-bit. Even higher accuracy, resource usage and slower inference. |
How to run in llama.cpp
I use the following command line; adjust for your tastes and needs:
./main -t 10 -ngl 32 -m VicUnlocked-Alpaca-65B.ggmlv3.q5_0.bin --color -c 2048 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "### Instruction: Write a story about llamas\n### Response:"
Change -t 10 to the number of physical CPU cores you have. For example if your system has 8 cores/16 threads, use -t 8.
Change -ngl 32 to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.
If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the -p <PROMPT> argument with -i -ins

Want to support my work?
I've had a lot of people ask if they can contribute. I love providing models and helping people, but it is starting to rack up pretty big cloud computing bills.
So if you're able and willing to contribute, it'd be most gratefully received and will help me to keep providing models, and work on various AI projects.
Donaters will get priority support on any and all AI/LLM/model questions, and I'll gladly quantise any model you'd like to try.
