This is a 8bit GPTQ (not to be confused with 8bit RTN) version of Vicuna 13B v1.1 HF.
Q. Why quantized in 8bit instead of 4bit? A. For evaluation purpose. In theory, a 8bit quantized model should provide slightly better perplexity (maybe not noticeable - To Be Evaluated...) over a 4bit quatized version. If your available GPU VRAM is over 15GB you may want to try this out. Note that quatization in 8bit does not mean loading the model in 8bit precision. Loading your model in 8bit precision (--load-in-8bit) comes with noticeable quality (perplexity) degradation.

Basic installation procedure
- It was a nightmare, I will only detail briefly what you'll need. WSL was quite painful to sort out.
- I will not provide installation support, sorry.
- You can certainly use llama.cpp and other loaders that support 8bit quantization, I just chose oobabooga/text-generation-webui.
- You will likely face many bugs until text-generation-webui loads, ranging between missing PATH or env variables to having to manually pip uninstall/install packages.
- The notes below will likely become outdated once both text-generation-webui and GPTQ-for-LLaMa receive the appropriate bug fixes.
- If this model produces very slow answers (1 token/s), it means you are not using Cuda for bitsandbytes or that your hardware needs an upgrade.
- If this model produces answers with weird characters, it means you a using a broken commit of qwopqwop200/GPTQ-for-LLaMa.
- If this model produces answers that are out of topic or if it talks to itself, it means you a using a broken commit of qwopqwop200/GPTQ-for-LLaMa.
RECOMMENDED - Triton (Fast tokens/s) - Works on Windows with WSL (what I've used) or Linux:
git clone https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
cd text-generation-webui
#git fetch origin pull/1229/head:triton # Since been merged # This is the version that supports Triton - https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/pull/1229
git checkout triton
pip install -r requirements.txt
mkdir repositories
cd repositories
git clone https://github.com/qwopqwop200/GPTQ-for-LLaMa.git # -b cuda
cd GPTQ-for-LLaMa
#git checkout 508de42 # Since been fixed # Before qwopqwop200 broke everything... - https://github.com/qwopqwop200/GPTQ-for-LLaMa/issues/183
git checkout 210c379 # Optional - This is a commit I have verified, you may want to try the latest commit instead, if the latest commit doesn't work revert to an older one such as this one
pip install -r requirements.txt
DISCOURAGED - Cuda (Slow tokens/s) and output issues https://github.com/qwopqwop200/GPTQ-for-LLaMa/issues/128:
git clone https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
cd text-generation-webui
pip install -r requirements.txt
mkdir repositories
cd repositories
git clone https://github.com/qwopqwop200/GPTQ-for-LLaMa.git -b cuda # Make sure you obtain the qwopqwop200 version, not the oobabooga one! (because "act-order: yes")
cd GPTQ-for-LLaMa
git checkout 505c2c7 # Optional - This is a commit I have verified, you may want to try the latest commit instead, if the latest commit doesn't work revert to an older one such as this one
pip install -r requirements.txt
python setup_cuda.py install

Major updates of weights v1.1
- Refactor the tokenization and separator. In Vicuna v1.1, the separator has been changed from
"###"to the EOS token"</s>". This change makes it easier to determine the generation stop criteria and enables better compatibility with other libraries. - Fix the supervised fine-tuning loss computation for better model quality.
