# MPT-30B-Chat

MPT-30B-Chat is a chatbot-like model for dialogue generation.
It was built by finetuning [MPT-30B](https://huggingface.co/mosaicml/mpt-30b) on the [ShareGPT-Vicuna](https://huggingface.co/datasets/anon8231489123/ShareGPT_Vicuna_unfiltered), [Camel-AI](https://huggingface.co/camel-ai),
 [GPTeacher](https://github.com/teknium1/GPTeacher), [Guanaco](https://huggingface.co/datasets/timdettmers/openassistant-guanaco), [Baize](https://github.com/project-baize/baize-chatbot) and some generated datasets.

### Example Dialogue

**ksreenivasan**:
> I want you to come up with a tweet based on this summary of the article:
> 
> We are excited to extend the MosaicML Foundation Series with MPT-30B, a new commercially licensed open-source model that is significantly more powerful, and outperforms the
> original GPT-3. In addition, we are releasing two fine-tuned models, MPT-30B-Instruct and MPT-30B-Chat, that are built on top of MPT-30B and excel at short-form instruction
> following and multi-turn conversations, respectively.
> All MPT-30B models come with special features that differentiate them from other LLMs, including an 8k token context window (which can be further extended via finetuning;
> see MPT-7B-StoryWriter), support for context-length extrapolation via ALiBi, and efficient inference + training performance via FlashAttention. It also has strong coding
> abilities thanks to its pretraining data mixture.



**MPT-30B-Chat**:
> "Revolutionize your AI capabilities with MosaicML's latest addition, MPT-30B! Outperforming GPT-3, this open-source model is significantly more powerful and comes with
> finely-tuned models for exceptional instruction following and multi-turn conversations. Unleash the potential of an 8k token context window, ALiBi support, and FlashAttention.
> Experience the future of AI with MosaicML! #AI #ML #innovation"

**ksreenivasan**:
> Is there anything you want to say to MosaicML about this exciting news?

**MPT-30B-Chat**:
> As your AI marketing assistant, I would say that this is truly exciting news for the AI community! MosaicML's latest addition, MPT-30B, is poised to revolutionize the industry with its powerful open-source capabilities and finely-tuned models for instruction following and multi-turn conversations.
> The special features, including the 8k token context window, ALiBi support, and FlashAttention, are sure to set MosaicML's MPT-30B apart from other LLMs.
> Congratulations to the MosaicML team on this incredible achievement!

## How to Use

This model is best used with the MosaicML [llm-foundry repository](https://github.com/mosaicml/llm-foundry) for training and finetuning.

```python
import transformers
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
  'mosaicml/mpt-30b-chat',
  trust_remote_code=True
)
```
Note: This model requires that `trust_remote_code=True` be passed to the `from_pretrained` method.
This is because we use a custom `MPT` model architecture that is not yet part of the Hugging Face `transformers` package.
`MPT` includes options for many training efficiency features such as [FlashAttention](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.14135.pdf), [ALiBi](https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.12409), [QK LayerNorm](https://arxiv.org/abs/2010.04245), and more.

To use the optimized [triton implementation](https://github.com/openai/triton) of FlashAttention, you can load the model on GPU (`cuda:0`) with `attn_impl='triton'` and with `bfloat16` precision:
```python
import torch
import transformers

name = 'mosaicml/mpt-30b-chat'

config = transformers.AutoConfig.from_pretrained(name, trust_remote_code=True)
config.attn_config['attn_impl'] = 'triton'  # change this to use triton-based FlashAttention
config.init_device = 'cuda:0' # For fast initialization directly on GPU!

model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
  name,
  config=config,
  torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, # Load model weights in bfloat16
  trust_remote_code=True
)
```

The model was trained initially with a sequence length of 2048 with an additional pretraining stage for sequence length adapation up to 8192. However, ALiBi enables users to increase the maximum sequence length even further during finetuning and/or inference. For example:

```python
import transformers

name = 'mosaicml/mpt-30b-chat'

config = transformers.AutoConfig.from_pretrained(name, trust_remote_code=True)
config.max_seq_len = 16384 # (input + output) tokens can now be up to 16384

model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
  name,
  config=config,
  trust_remote_code=True
)
```

This model was trained with the MPT-30B tokenizer which is based on the [EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b) tokenizer and includes additional padding and eos tokens.

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained('mosaicml/mpt-30b')
```

The model can then be used, for example, within a text-generation pipeline.  
Note: when running Torch modules in lower precision, it is best practice to use the [torch.autocast context manager](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/amp.html).

```python
from transformers import pipeline

with torch.autocast('cuda', dtype=torch.bfloat16):
    inputs = tokenizer('Here is a recipe for vegan banana bread:\n', return_tensors="pt").to('cuda')
    outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=100)
    print(tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs, skip_special_tokens=True))

# or using the HF pipeline
pipe = pipeline('text-generation', model=model, tokenizer=tokenizer, device='cuda:0')
with torch.autocast('cuda', dtype=torch.bfloat16):
    print(
        pipe('Here is a recipe for vegan banana bread:\n',
            max_new_tokens=100,
            do_sample=True,
            use_cache=True))
```

## Model Description

The architecture is a modification of a standard decoder-only transformer.

The model has been modified from a standard transformer in the following ways:
* It uses [FlashAttention](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.14135.pdf)
* It uses [ALiBi (Attention with Linear Biases)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.12409) and does not use positional embeddings
* It does not use biases

## Data Mix

The model was trained on the following data mix:

| Data Source | Number of Tokens in Source | Proportion | 
|-------------|----------------------------|------------|
| Airoboros/GPT4-1.2 | 26.4M | 1.71% |
| Baize | 55.0M | 3.57% |

| Guanaco | 15.6M | 1.02% | 
| LongCoversations | 18.4M | 1.19% | 
| ShareGPT | 821M | 53.24% |
| WizardLM | 297M | 19.23% |

"LongConversations" is a GPT3.5/4-generated dataset, details of which will be released at a later date.

### Training Configuration

This model was trained on 64 H100s for about 7.6 hours using the [MosaicML Platform](https://www.mosaicml.com/platform).
The model was trained with sharded data parallelism using [FSDP](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/fsdp.html) and used the AdamW optimizer.

## Limitations and Biases

_The following language is modified from [EleutherAI's GPT-NeoX-20B](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b)_

MPT-30B-Chat can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate information.
MPT-30B-Chat was trained on various public datasets.
While great efforts have been taken to clean the pretraining data, it is possible that this model could generate lewd, biased or otherwise offensive outputs.
