YaLM-100B VS mesh-transformer-jax

Its probably just open source software/training sets repurposed... https://github.com/yandex/YaLM-100B

There is a 100b model published on pache 2.0 license. Though there is no information about finetuning it or using in 4-bit with smth like llama.cpp. Trying to figure out how to try it without renting extremely expensive gpu set. https://github.com/yandex/YaLM-100B

Hey everyone! I just discovered an open-source 100 billion parameter language model called YaLM, which is published under the Apache 2.0 license. The model is trained on more than 1 TB of Russian and English text. Here's the GitHub repo: https://github.com/yandex/YaLM-100B and an article explaining how it was trained: https://medium.com/yandex/yandex-publishes-yalm-100b-its-the-largest-gpt-like-neural-network-in-open-source-d1df53d0e9a6

Yandex has already released a LLM: https://github.com/yandex/YaLM-100B

So there is this open project YaLM 100B require 200 GB of disk space, it is trained on 1.7 TB of text

You'd think so, but to train a model like the one CAI uses, it would require truly jaw-breaking amount of funds. That's why CAI is so suspicious tbh. Just to give you an example, YaML (100 billion parameters which is probably less than CAI) took 65 days to train, and 800 A100 graphics cards. 175 billion parameters would not be 1.75 times higher because it's not a linear function. It would probably be 10x or even more. IIRC, "Open"Ai could only afford to train GPT-3 a single time...

I don't much follow AI news beyond what I randomly happen to see on HN, but this might still be the largest open source model: https://github.com/yandex/YaLM-100B . There's discussion of it here: https://old.reddit.com/r/MachineLearning/comments/vpn0r1/d_h... - at the bottom of that page is a comment from someone who actually ran it in the cloud.

Hilariously, Yandex Alisa runs circles around it, because it's not just a collection of gimmicks but has an actual 100B-class language model (YaLM, opensourced) as its core, plus lots of decent engineering. It's helpful, skillful and feels alive, almost like ChatGPT.

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)
