transformers VS StableLM

Fascinating work, very promising.

Can you summarise how the model in your paper differs from this one ?

https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/27011

transformers is a package by Hugging Face, that helps you interact with models on HF Hub (GitHub)

Is t5x an encoder/decoder architecture?

Some more general options.

The Flax ecosystem

https://github.com/google/flax?tab=readme-ov-file

or dm-haiku

https://github.com/google-deepmind/dm-haiku

were some of the best developed communities in the Jax AI field

Perhaps the “trax” repo? https://github.com/google/trax

Some HF examples https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/main/exampl...

Sadly it seems much of the work is proprietary these days, but one example could be Grok-1, if you customize the details. https://github.com/xai-org/grok-1/blob/main/run.py

The HuggingFace transformers library already has support for a similar method called prompt lookup decoding that uses the existing context to generate an ngram model: https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/27722

I don't think it would be that hard to switch it out for a pretrained ngram model.

Most of this tutorial is based on Hugging Face course about Transformers and on Niels Rogge's Transformers tutorials: make sure to check their work and give them a star on GitHub, if you please ❤️

* Superconvergence + LR range finder + Fast AI's Ranger21 optimizer was the goto optimizer for CNNs, and worked fabulously well, but on transformers, the learning rate range finder sadi 1e-3 was the best, whilst 1e-5 was better. However, the 1 cycle learning rate stuck. https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/issues/16013

Thanks! :) I'm pushing them into transformers, pytorch-gemma and collabing with the Gemma team to resolve all the issues :)

The RoPE fix should already be in transformers 4.38.2: https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/29285

My main PR for transformers which fixes most of the issues (some still left): https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/pull/29402

https://mistral.ai/news/announcing-mistral-7b/

looking at the 3b results (here https://github.com/Stability-AI/StableLM#stablelm-alpha-v2 ?), it looks like Mistral (which outperforms Llama-2 13b) is far more powerful

Does this mean Stability gave up on StableLM?

I notice that the repo hasn’t been updated since April, and a question asking for an update has been ignored for at least a month: https://github.com/Stability-AI/StableLM/issues/83

I'm not "ignoring" StableLM, if anything it's the impetus for my post. The alpha models were so bad and unusable that it seems they may have simply abandoned the project. It's clear they basically didn't know what they were doing, which is silly for a company of their size and specialization.

1) StableLM released a checkpoint at 800B for their 3B and 7B at 800B tokens with 4096 context size, but perform very poorly on different benchmarks and finetuning is discouraged with such a weak base model

It is the best open-source model currently available. Falcon-40B outperforms LLaMA, StableLM, RedPajama, MPT, etc. See the OpenLLM Leaderboard.
