• Model creator: timpal0l
• Original model: Llama-3-8B-flashback-v1

Model Summary

Llama-3-8B-flashback-v1 is a continuation of the pretraining process for the base meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B model, utilizing 2 251 233 forum threads from the Swedish website https://www.flashback.org/. Which is rougly 40GB of text. It is a full finetune for three epochs.

How to use

Install the necessary packages

pip install --upgrade autoawq autoawq-kernels

Example Python code

from awq import AutoAWQForCausalLM
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, TextStreamer

model_path = "solidrust/Llama-3-8B-flashback-v1-AWQ"
system_message = "You are Llama-3-8B-flashback-v1, incarnated as a powerful AI. You were created by timpal0l."

# Load model
model = AutoAWQForCausalLM.from_quantized(model_path,
                                          fuse_layers=True)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_path,
                                          trust_remote_code=True)
streamer = TextStreamer(tokenizer,
                        skip_prompt=True,
                        skip_special_tokens=True)

# Convert prompt to tokens
prompt_template = """\
<|im_start|>system
{system_message}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
{prompt}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant"""

prompt = "You're standing on the surface of the Earth. "\
        "You walk one mile south, one mile west and one mile north. "\
        "You end up exactly where you started. Where are you?"

tokens = tokenizer(prompt_template.format(system_message=system_message,prompt=prompt),
                  return_tensors='pt').input_ids.cuda()

# Generate output
generation_output = model.generate(tokens,
                                  streamer=streamer,

About AWQ

AWQ is an efficient, accurate and blazing-fast low-bit weight quantization method, currently supporting 4-bit quantization. Compared to GPTQ, it offers faster Transformers-based inference with equivalent or better quality compared to the most commonly used GPTQ settings.

AWQ models are currently supported on Linux and Windows, with NVidia GPUs only. macOS users: please use GGUF models instead.

It is supported by:

• Text Generation Webui - using Loader: AutoAWQ
• vLLM - version 0.2.2 or later for support for all model types.
• Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI)
• Transformers version 4.35.0 and later, from any code or client that supports Transformers
• AutoAWQ - for use from Python code
