- Original model: [Hippogriff 30B Chat](https://huggingface.co/openaccess-ai-collective/hippogriff-30b-chat)
## Description
This repo contains GGUF format model files for [OpenAccess AI Collective's Hippogriff 30B Chat](https://huggingface.co/openaccess-ai-collective/hippogriff-30b-chat).
### 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](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp). The source project for GGUF. Offers a CLI and a server option.
* [text-generation-webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui), the most widely used web UI, with many features and powerful extensions. Supports GPU acceleration.
* [KoboldCpp](https://github.com/LostRuins/koboldcpp), a fully featured web UI, with GPU accel across all platforms and GPU architectures. Especially good for story telling.
* [LM Studio](https://lmstudio.ai/), an easy-to-use and powerful local GUI for Windows and macOS (Silicon), with GPU acceleration.
* [LoLLMS Web UI](https://github.com/ParisNeo/lollms-webui), a great web UI with many interesting and unique features, including a full model library for easy model selection.
* [Faraday.dev](https://faraday.dev/), an attractive and easy to use character-based chat GUI for Windows and macOS (both Silicon and Intel), with GPU acceleration.
* [ctransformers](https://github.com/marella/ctransformers), a Python library with GPU accel, LangChain support, and OpenAI-compatible AI server.
* [llama-cpp-python](https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python), a Python library with GPU accel, LangChain support, and OpenAI-compatible API server.
* [candle](https://github.com/huggingface/candle), a Rust ML framework with a focus on performance, including GPU support, and ease of use.

## Prompt template: Vicuna
```
A chat between a curious user and an artificial intelligence assistant. The assistant gives helpful, detailed, and polite answers to the user's questions. USER: {prompt} ASSISTANT:
```
## Compatibility
These quantised GGUFv2 files are compatible with llama.cpp from August 27th onwards, as of commit [d0cee0d](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/commit/d0cee0d36d5be95a0d9088b674dbb27354107221)
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/hippogriff-30b-chat-GGUF and below it, a specific filename to download, such as: hippogriff-30b.Q4_K_M.gguf.
Then click Download.
### On the command line, including multiple files at once
I recommend using the `huggingface-hub` Python library:
```shell
pip3 install huggingface-hub
```
Then you can download any individual model file to the current directory, at high speed, with a command like this:
```shell
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/hippogriff-30b-chat-GGUF hippogriff-30b.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:
```shell
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/hippogriff-30b-chat-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](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/guides/download#download-from-the-cli).
To accelerate downloads on fast connections (1Gbit/s or higher), install `hf_transfer`:
```shell
pip3 install hf_transfer
```
And set environment variable `HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER` to `1`:
```shell
HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download TheBloke/hippogriff-30b-chat-GGUF hippogriff-30b.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](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/commit/d0cee0d36d5be95a0d9088b674dbb27354107221) or later.
```shell
./main -ngl 32 -m hippogriff-30b.Q4_K_M.gguf --color -c 2048 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "A chat between a curious user and an artificial intelligence assistant. The assistant gives helpful, detailed, and polite answers to the user's questions. USER: {prompt} 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 ` argument with `-i -ins`
For other parameters and how to use them, please refer to [the llama.cpp documentation](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/examples/main/README.md)
## How to run in `text-generation-webui`
Further instructions here: [text-generation-webui/docs/llama.cpp.md](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/blob/main/docs/llama.cpp.md).
## How to run from Python code
You can use GGUF models from Python using the [llama-cpp-python](https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python) or [ctransformers](https://github.com/marella/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:
```shell
# 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
```python
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/hippogriff-30b-chat-GGUF", model_file="hippogriff-30b.Q4_K_M.gguf", model_type="llama", gpu_layers=50)
print(llm("AI is going to"))
```

# Original model card: OpenAccess AI Collective's Hippogriff 30B Chat
# Hippogriff 30B Chat
[](https://github.com/OpenAccess-AI-Collective/axolotl)
Hippogriff 30B Chat is an experiment that builds on Manticore with new datasets, while removing a few more instruction and chat datasets. It also includes a de-duped subset of the Pygmalion dataset. It also removes all Alpaca style prompts using `###` in favor of
chat only style prompts using `USER:`,`ASSISTANT:` as well as [pygmalion/metharme prompting](https://huggingface.co/PygmalionAI/metharme-7b#prompting) using `<|system|>, <|user|> and <|model|>` tokens.
Questions, comments, feedback, looking to donate, or want to help? Reach out on our [Discord](https://discord.gg/PugNNHAF5r) or email [wing@openaccessaicollective.org](mailto:wing@openaccessaicollective.org)
# Training Datasets
Hippogriff 30B Chat is a Llama 30B model fine-tuned on the following datasets
- OpenAssistant/oasst1 - cleaned dataset, similar to Guanaco
- synthetic jokes generation and explanation derived from reddit jokes dataset
- synthetic prose generation and rewriting self-chat
- Q&A based on provided context
- self instruct augmented logic_inference_oa
- de-duped pygmalion dataset, filtered down to RP data, cleaned, english only, 25%
- [riddle_sense](https://huggingface.co/datasets/riddle_sense) - instruct augmented
- hellaswag, updated for detailed explanations w 30K+ rows
- [gsm8k](https://huggingface.co/datasets/gsm8k) - instruct augmented
- [ewof/code-alpaca-instruct-unfiltered](https://huggingface.co/datasets/ewof/code-alpaca-instruct-unfiltered) synthetic self chat dataset derived from about 1000 rows
- [subset of QingyiSi/Alpaca-CoT for roleplay and CoT](https://huggingface.co/QingyiSi/Alpaca-CoT)
- [GPTeacher-General-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/datasets/teknium/GPTeacher-General-Instruct)
- ARC-Easy & ARC-Challenge - instruct augmented for detailed responses, derived from the `train` split
- [hellaswag](https://huggingface.co/datasets/hellaswag) - 5K row subset of instruct augmented for concise responses, derived from the `train` split
- [metaeval/ScienceQA_text_only](https://huggingface.co/datasets/metaeval/ScienceQA_text_only) - instruct for concise responses
- [openai/summarize_from_feedback](https://huggingface.co/datasets/openai/summarize_from_feedback) - instruct augmented tl;dr summarization
Hippogriff differs from Manticore as it does not use the WizardLM, WizardVicuna, Alpaca, or ShareGPT datasets.
# Initial thoughts
Hippogriff follows instructions pretty well. It still struggles with anything that has to do with math. Prose is much better than manticore. Handles in-context QA much better.
# Shoutouts
Special thanks to Nanobit for helping with Axolotl, TheBloke for quantizing these models are more accessible to all, 0x000011b for the RP dataset, and the support from everyone in our AI Discord community.
# Demo
A Spaces demo is not provided for this release due to 30B models currently not fitting in VRAM.
## Build
Hippogriff was built with [Axolotl](https://github.com/OpenAccess-AI-Collective/axolotl) on 8xA100 80GB
- 1.5 epochs taking approximately 12 hours. No further epochs will be released.
## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
Hippogriff has not been aligned to human preferences with techniques like RLHF or deployed with in-the-loop filtering of responses like ChatGPT, so the model can produce problematic outputs (especially when prompted to do so).
Hippogriff was fine-tuned from the base model LlaMa 30B, please refer to its model card's Limitations Section for relevant information.
The core functionality of Llama is taking a string of text and predicting the next token. While language models are widely used for tasks other than this,
there are a lot of unknowns with this work. When prompting Hippogriff it is important to remember that the statistically most likely next token is often
not the token that produces the most "accurate" text. Never depend upon Hippogriff to produce factually accurate output.
Llama was trained on the Pile, a dataset known to contain profanity, lewd, and otherwise abrasive language. Depending upon use case Hippogriff may produce
socially unacceptable text. See Sections 5 and 6 of the Pile paper for a more detailed analysis of the biases in the Pile.
As with all language models, it is hard to predict in advance how Hippogriff will respond to particular prompts and offensive content may occur without warning.
We recommend having a human curate or filter the outputs before releasing them, both to censor undesirable content and to improve the quality of the results.
## Examples
TBD
```
USER: write an original short story of at least 300 words in the style of Zora Neale Hurston. Incorporate the following literary devices: Euphemism and Foreshadowing.
ASSISTANT: Once upon a time, there was a black girl named Rose, whose skin shined like a pearl beneath the hot sun. She lived with her mama and daddy on their farm, where they grew crops to feed the family and neighbors. On this particular day, Rose felt a tinge of excitement as she watched her parents work diligently in their fields. 'It's almost harvest season!' she thought, imagining the delicious meals that awaited them. But, soon after, it became apparent that something sinister lurked amidst the rows of fresh produce.
As her father hoed around a vine-covered cucumber plant, he unearthed a peculiar rock. It was the size of an acorn but had a strange shape, unlike anything he or his wife had ever seen. "What have we here?" He said, turning to his wife with curiosity and excitement. She examined the rock for herself and declared, "Why, it looks like a piece of coal!" But as both mother and daughter looked closer, it seemed to be far more than a mere piece of coal. A sense of unease crept up Rose's spine when she noticed that the rock resembled the dark face of a baby in the womb. As Rose tried to suppress a scream, her mother gasped, "Sweet Jesus! Let's bury this thing before anyone sees!" And so, they quickly hid the stone back underground, hoping that nobody would ever discover their secret.
```
```
USER: tell me 5 words that start with "ex" and then the sum of 33 and 77
ASSISTANT: Excite, exotic, exhibit, excitable, excessive
```
```
USER: sally (a girl) has 3 brothers. Each brother has 2 sisters. how many sisters does sally have?
ASSISTANT: Sally has 3 brothers, and each brother has 2 sisters. To find out how many sisters Sally has in total, we need to multiply the number of bro
thers by the number of sisters per brother, then add 1 to account for Sally herself. So, 3 * 2 + 1 = 6 sisters in total
```
