Lzlv 70B - AWQ

• Model creator: A Guy
• Original model: Lzlv 70B

Description

This repo contains AWQ model files for A Guy's Lzlv 70B .

About AWQ

AWQ is an efficient, accurate and blazing-fast low-bit weight quantization method, currently supporting 4-bit quantization. Compared to GPTQ, it offers faster Transformers-based inference with equivalent or better quality compared to the most commonly used GPTQ settings.

It is supported by:

• Text Generation Webui - using Loader: AutoAWQ
• vLLM - Llama and Mistral models only
• Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI)
• AutoAWQ - for use from Python code

Repositories available

• AWQ model(s) for GPU inference.
• GPTQ models for GPU inference, with multiple quantisation parameter options.
• 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 and 8-bit GGUF models for CPU+GPU inference
• A Guy's original unquantised fp16 model in pytorch format, for GPU inference and for further conversions

Prompt template: Alpaca

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:
{prompt}

### Response:

Licensing

The creator of the source model has listed its license as cc-by-nc-2.0 , and this quantization has therefore used that same license.

As this model is based on Llama 2, it is also subject to the Meta Llama 2 license terms, and the license files for that are additionally included. It should therefore be considered as being claimed to be licensed under both licenses. I contacted Hugging Face for clarification on dual licensing but they do not yet have an official position. Should this change, or should Meta provide any feedback on this situation, I will update this section accordingly.

In the meantime, any questions regarding licensing, and in particular how these two licenses might interact, should be directed to the original model repository: A Guy's Lzlv 70B .

Provided files, and AWQ parameters

For my first release of AWQ models, I am releasing 128g models only. I will consider adding 32g as well if there is interest, and once I have done perplexity and evaluation comparisons, but at this time 32g models are still not fully tested with AutoAWQ and vLLM.

Models are released as sharded safetensors files.

How to easily download and use this model in text-generation-webui

Please make sure you're using the latest version of text-generation-webui .

It is strongly recommended to use the text-generation-webui one-click-installers unless you're sure you know how to make a manual install.

1. Click the Model tab .
2. Under Download custom model or LoRA , enter TheBloke/lzlv_70B-AWQ .
3. Click Download .
4. The model will start downloading. Once it's finished it will say "Done".
5. In the top left, click the refresh icon next to Model .
6. In the Model dropdown, choose the model you just downloaded: lzlv_70B-AWQ
7. Select Loader: AutoAWQ .
8. Click Load, and the model will load and is now ready for use.
9. If you want any custom settings, set them and then click Save settings for this model followed by Reload the Model in the top right.
10. Once you're ready, click the Text Generation tab and enter a prompt to get started!

Multi-user inference server: vLLM

Documentation on installing and using vLLM can be found here .

• Please ensure you are using vLLM version 0.2 or later.
• When using vLLM as a server, pass the --quantization awq parameter.

For example:

python3 python -m vllm.entrypoints.api_server --model TheBloke/lzlv_70B-AWQ --quantization awq

• When using vLLM from Python code, again set quantization=awq .

For example:

from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams

prompts = [
    "Tell me about AI",
    "Write a story about llamas",
    "What is 291 - 150?",
    "How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?",
]
prompt_template=f'''Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:

### Response:
'''

prompts = [prompt_template.format(prompt=prompt) for prompt in prompts]

sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.8, top_p=0.95)

llm = LLM(model="TheBloke/lzlv_70B-AWQ", quantization="awq", dtype="auto")

outputs = llm.generate(prompts, sampling_params)

# Print the outputs.
for output in outputs:
    prompt = output.prompt
    generated_text = output.outputs[0].text
    print(f"Prompt: {prompt!r}, Generated text: {generated_text!r}")

Multi-user inference server: Hugging Face Text Generation Inference (TGI)

Inference from Python code using AutoAWQ

Install the AutoAWQ package

Requires: AutoAWQ 0.1.1 or later.

Original model card: A Guy's Lzlv 70B

lzlv_70B

A Mythomax/MLewd_13B-style merge of selected 70B models

A multi-model merge of several LLaMA2 70B finetunes for roleplaying and creative work. The goal was to create a model that combines creativity with intelligence for an enhanced experience.

Did it work? Probably, maybe. It seemed subjectively better than each of the individual models in my tests.

GGUF 4_K_M + 5_K_M can be found here: https://huggingface.co/lizpreciatior/lzlv_70b_fp16_hf/settings

Procedure:

Models used:

• NousResearch/Nous-Hermes-Llama2-70b - A great model for roleplaying, but not the best at following complex instructions.
• Xwin-LM/Xwin-LM-7B-V0.1 - Excellent at following instructions and quite creative out of the box, so it seemed like the best available model to act as the base for the merge.
• Doctor-Shotgun/Mythospice-70b - The wildcard of the three. I was looking for a creative, NSFW-oriented model and came across this while digging through hf. I hadn't heard of it before and apparently no one had bothered to release a quantized version of this model. So I downloaded it and did it myself to test it. It turned out to be more or less what I was looking for as my third component, so I used it here.

A big thank you to the creators of the models above. If you look up Mythospice, you will notice that it also includes Nous-Hermes so it's technically present twice in this mix. This is apparently common practice amongst the cool kids who do 13B models so I don't think this hurts the model.

The merging process was heavily inspired by Undi95's approach in Undi95/MXLewdMini-L2-13B. To be specific, the ratios are:

Component 1: Merge of Mythospice x Xwin with SLERP gradient [0.25, 0.3, 0.5]. Component 2: Merge Xwin x Hermes with SLERP gradient [0.4, 0.3, 0.25].

Finally, both Component 1 and Component 2 were merged with SLERP using weight 0.5.

Peformance

I tested this model for a few days before publishing it. It seems to more or less retain the instruction-following capabilities of Xwin-70B, while seeming to have adopted a lot of the creativity of the other two models. It handled my more complex scenarios that creative models otherwise tend to struggle with quite well. At the same time, its outputs felt more creative and possibly a bit more nsfw-inclined than Xwin-70b. So, is it better? Feels like it to me, subjectively. Is it really better? No clue, test it.
