LLaMA-Adapter VS serge

Either LLaMA with Alpaca LoRA 65B, or LLaMA-Adapter-V2-65B chat demo. I haven't seen any tests of the 65B LLaMA-Adapter-V2, but they claim it's as good as ChatGPT when compared using GPT-4.

How to efficiently transform large language models (LLMs) into instruction followers is recently a popular research direction, while training LLM for multi-modal reasoning remains less explored. Although the recent LLaMA-Adapter demonstrates the potential to handle visual inputs with LLMs, it still cannot generalize well to open-ended visual instructions and lags behind GPT-4. In this paper, we present LLaMA-Adapter V2, a parameter-efficient visual instruction model. Specifically, we first augment LLaMA-Adapter by unlocking more learnable parameters (e.g., norm, bias and scale), which distribute the instruction-following ability across the entire LLaMA model besides adapters. Secondly, we propose an early fusion strategy to feed visual tokens only into the early LLM layers, contributing to better visual knowledge incorporation. Thirdly, a joint training paradigm of image-text pairs and instruction-following data is introduced by optimizing disjoint groups of learnable parameters. This strategy effectively alleviates the interference between the two tasks of image-text alignment and instruction following and achieves strong multi-modal reasoning with only a small-scale image-text and instruction dataset. During inference, we incorporate additional expert models (e.g. captioning/OCR systems) into LLaMA-Adapter to further enhance its image understanding capability without incurring training costs. Compared to the original LLaMA-Adapter, our LLaMA-Adapter V2 can perform open-ended multi-modal instructions by merely introducing 14M parameters over LLaMA. The newly designed framework also exhibits stronger language-only instruction-following capabilities and even excels in chat interactions.

Very cool, this looks like a combination of chatbot-ui and llama-cpp-python? A similar project I've been using is https://github.com/serge-chat/serge. Nous-Hermes-Llama2-13b is my daily driver and scores high on coding evaluations (https://huggingface.co/spaces/mike-ravkine/can-ai-code-resul...).

You might be pleased to hear that nothing really stops you from doing this today. If you ran Serge[0] on a Mac with Tailscale, you could hack together a decently-accelerated Llama chatbot.

Cannot help you with libraries specifically but both Serge and ChatUI are built using SvelteKit, so the code might be of some use to you.

Serge made it really easy for me to get started, but it all CPU-based.

All that said this project probably solves your problem: https://github.com/serge-chat/serge

You can play a little bit with more straightforward local models (the simplest to setup is https://github.com/nsarrazin/serge ), to see that any LLM is basically a party trick.
