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.
The training material is named The Pile, a 800GB large corpus consisting of 22 different sources, including scientific research papers from ArXiV, legal documents from the the FreeLaw Project, and eBooks from Project Gutenberg campus. As shown in its documentation, GPT-J performance is on par with the GPT-3 6B model. Also, the model can be used for advanced theorem proving and natural language understanding.
This 20B model was trained on the same datasets as its predecessor, aptly named The Pile. Furthermore, the libraries Megatron and DeepSpeed were used to achieve better computing resource utilization, and eventually GPT-NeoX evolved into its own framework for training other LLMs. It was used, for example, as the foundation for Llemma, an open-source model specializing on theorem proving.
