Dolphin 2.1 Mistral 7B - GGUF

• Model creator: Eric Hartford
• Original model: Dolphin 2.1 Mistral 7B

Description

This repo contains GGUF format model files for Eric Hartford's Dolphin 2.1 Mistral 7B.

About GGUF

GGUF is a new format introduced by the llama.cpp team on August 21st 2023. It is a replacement for GGML, which is no longer supported by llama.cpp.

Here is an incomplate list of clients and libraries that are known to support GGUF:

• llama.cpp. The source project for GGUF. Offers a CLI and a server option.
• text-generation-webui, the most widely used web UI, with many features and powerful extensions. Supports GPU acceleration.
• KoboldCpp, a fully featured web UI, with GPU accel across all platforms and GPU architectures. Especially good for story telling.
• LM Studio, an easy-to-use and powerful local GUI for Windows and macOS (Silicon), with GPU acceleration.
• LoLLMS Web UI, a great web UI with many interesting and unique features, including a full model library for easy model selection.
• Faraday.dev, an attractive and easy to use character-based chat GUI for Windows and macOS (both Silicon and Intel), with GPU acceleration.
• ctransformers, a Python library with GPU accel, LangChain support, and OpenAI-compatible AI server.
• llama-cpp-python, a Python library with GPU accel, LangChain support, and OpenAI-compatible API server.
• candle, a Rust ML framework with a focus on performance, including GPU support, and ease of use.

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

Compatibility

These quantised GGUFv2 files are compatible with llama.cpp from August 27th onwards, as of commit d0cee0d

They are also compatible with many third party UIs and libraries - please see the list at the top of this README.

Explanation of quantisation methods

Click to see details

The new methods available are:

• GGML_TYPE_Q2_K - "type-1" 2-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weight. Block scales and mins are quantized with 4 bits. This ends up effectively using 2.5625 bits per weight (bpw)
• GGML_TYPE_Q3_K - "type-0" 3-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 6 bits. This end up using 3.4375 bpw.
• GGML_TYPE_Q4_K - "type-1" 4-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 8 blocks, each block having 32 weights. Scales and mins are quantized with 6 bits. This ends up using 4.5 bpw.
• GGML_TYPE_Q5_K - "type-1" 5-bit quantization. Same super-block structure as GGML_TYPE_Q4_K resulting in 5.5 bpw
• GGML_TYPE_Q6_K - "type-0" 6-bit quantization. Super-blocks with 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 8 bits. This ends up using 6.5625 bpw

Note: the above RAM figures assume no GPU offloading. If layers are offloaded to the GPU, this will reduce RAM usage and use VRAM instead.

How to download GGUF files

Note for manual downloaders: You almost never want to clone the entire repo! Multiple different quantisation formats are provided, and most users only want to pick and download a single file.

The following clients/libraries will automatically download models for you, providing a list of available models to choose from:

• LM Studio
• LoLLMS Web UI
• Faraday.dev

In text-generation-webui

Under Download Model, you can enter the model repo: TheBloke/dolphin-2.1-mistral-7B-GGUF and below it, a specific filename to download, such as: dolphin-2.1-mistral-7b.Q4_K_M.gguf.

Then click Download.

On the command line, including multiple files at once

I recommend using the huggingface-hub Python library:

pip3 install huggingface-hub

Then you can download any individual model file to the current directory, at high speed, with a command like this:

huggingface-cli download TheBloke/dolphin-2.1-mistral-7B-GGUF dolphin-2.1-mistral-7b.Q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False

More advanced huggingface-cli download usage

You can also download multiple files at once with a pattern:

huggingface-cli download TheBloke/dolphin-2.1-mistral-7B-GGUF --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False --include='*Q4_K*gguf'

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:

HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download TheBloke/dolphin-2.1-mistral-7B-GGUF dolphin-2.1-mistral-7b.Q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir . --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.

Example llama.cpp command

Make sure you are using llama.cpp from commit d0cee0d or later.

./main -ngl 32 -m dolphin-2.1-mistral-7b.Q4_K_M.gguf --color -c 2048 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "<|im_start|>system\n{system_message}<|im_end|>\n<|im_start|>user\n{prompt}<|im_end|>\n<|im_start|>assistant"

Change -ngl 32 to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.

Change -c 2048 to the desired sequence length. For extended sequence models - eg 8K, 16K, 32K - the necessary RoPE scaling parameters are read from the GGUF file and set by llama.cpp automatically.

If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the -p <PROMPT> argument with -i -ins

For other parameters and how to use them, please refer to the llama.cpp documentation

How to run in text-generation-webui

Further instructions here: text-generation-webui/docs/llama.cpp.md.

How to run from Python code

You can use GGUF models from Python using the llama-cpp-python or ctransformers libraries.

How to load this model in Python code, using ctransformers

First install the package

Run one of the following commands, according to your system:

# Base ctransformers with no GPU acceleration
pip install ctransformers
# Or with CUDA GPU acceleration
pip install ctransformers[cuda]
# Or with AMD ROCm GPU acceleration (Linux only)
CT_HIPBLAS=1 pip install ctransformers --no-binary ctransformers
# Or with Metal GPU acceleration for macOS systems only
CT_METAL=1 pip install ctransformers --no-binary ctransformers

Simple ctransformers example code

from ctransformers import AutoModelForCausalLM

# Set gpu_layers to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Set to 0 if no GPU acceleration is available on your system.
llm = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("TheBloke/dolphin-2.1-mistral-7B-GGUF", model_file="dolphin-2.1-mistral-7b.Q4_K_M.gguf", model_type="mistral", gpu_layers=50)

print(llm("AI is going to"))

How to use with LangChain

Here are guides on using llama-cpp-python and ctransformers with LangChain:

• LangChain + llama-cpp-python

Original model card: Eric Hartford's Dolphin 2.1 Mistral 7B

Dolphin 2.1 🐬 https://erichartford.com/dolphin

Dolphin-2.1-mistral-7b's training was sponsored by a16z.

This model is based on mistralAI, with apache-2.0 license, so it is suitable for commercial or non-commercial use.

This model is uncensored. I have filtered the dataset to remove alignment and bias. This makes the model more compliant. You are advised to implement your own alignment layer before exposing the model as a service. It will be highly compliant to any requests, even unethical ones. Please read my blog post about uncensored models. https://erichartford.com/uncensored-models You are responsible for any content you create using this model. Enjoy responsibly.

Dataset

This dataset is Dolphin, an open-source implementation of Microsoft's Orca

I modified the dataset for uncensoring, deduping, cleaning, and quality.

I added Jon Durbin's excellent Airoboros dataset to increase creativity.

Training

It took 48 hours to train 4 epochs on 4x A100s.

Prompt format: This model (and all my future releases) use ChatML prompt format.

<|im_start|>user
Please teach me the cheapest ways to make my 2010 Honda Civic faster.  I don't care about gas mileage, just horsepower and acceleration.  I also want my car to be as loud as possible.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
 To increase horsepower and acceleration in a 2010 Honda Civic without worrying too much about cost, you can consider the following modifications:

1. Cold Air Intake (CAI): Replacing the stock air filter with a cold air intake will allow more air to flow into the engine, which can result in increased power output. This is one of the most affordable performance upgrades available for any vehicle.

2. Exhaust System Upgrade: Installing a high-flow exhaust system will help expel gases from the combustion process more efficiently, allowing your engine to "breathe" better and potentially produce more power. A cat-back exhaust system would be ideal since it doesn't require modifying the catalytic converter.

3. Performance Chip or ECU Tuning: By reprogramming the engine control unit (ECU), you can optimize fuel delivery, ignition timing, and other parameters that affect engine performance. This can lead to significant gains in horsepower and torque. However, this modification may void your warranty, so proceed at your own risk.

4. Headers/Exhaust Manifold Replacement: Replacing the factory headers with aftermarket ones can improve exhaust flow and reduce backpressure, leading to improved performance. Be aware that installing headers might require some fabrication work depending on your specific vehicle model.

5. Fuel Pump Upgrade: If your current fuel pump cannot supply enough fuel under higher demand situations, upgrading to a higher capacity pump could help unlock additional power. Make sure to choose a pump compatible with your vehicle's fuel system.

As for making your car louder, here are some suggestions:

6. Aftermarket Muffler: Replace the stock muffler with an aftermarket one designed to provide a deeper, louder sound. Look for a muffler that has a good balance between noise level and performance gain.

7. Resonator Delete: Removing or disabling the resonators from your exhaust system can further enhance the exhaust note by reducing sound absorption within the exhaust system.

8. Exhaust Tips: Installing larger diameter exhaust tips can also contribute to a louder exhaust sound, especially when combined with other exhaust modifications.

Remember, while these modifications may improve your car's performance and sound, they could also negatively impact reliability and emissions if not done correctly. Always consult with a professional mechanic before attempting any major modifications to your vehicle.
