Finetune_LLMs VS mesh-transformer-jax

Regarding this: if you have resources (at least Colab Pro), you would be much better off training GPT-J (aka GPT-J-6B). Not only it's 4x larger than the largest GPT-2, its architecture, AFAIK, is based on GPT-3. You can use this repo as a good example for GPT-J finetuning.

And this: https://github.com/mallorbc/Finetune_GPTNEO_GPTJ6B

GPT-J is a LLM case study with two goals: Training a LLM with a data source containing unique material, and using the training frameworkMesh Transformer JAX to achieve a high training efficiency through parallelization. There is no research paper about GPT-J, but on its GitHub pages, the model, different checkpoints, and the complete source code for training is given.

This idea has already been proposed in ViT-22B and GPT-J-6B.

Sure. Here's the repo I used for the fine-tuning: https://github.com/kingoflolz/mesh-transformer-jax. I used 5 epochs, and appart from that I kept the default parameters in the repo.

You can skip to step 4 using something like GPT-J as far as I understand: https://github.com/kingoflolz/mesh-transformer-jax#links

The pretrained model is already available.

The Github repo suggests it's possible you can change the number of checkpoints to make it run on a GPU.

They hinted at it in the screenshot, but the goods are linked from the https://6b.eleuther.ai page: https://github.com/kingoflolz/mesh-transformer-jax#gpt-j-6b (Apache 2)
