GreenBit LLaMA

This is GreenBitAI's research code for running 2-bit and 1-bit LLaMA models with extreme compression yet still strong performance, the quantized models are available on the model zoo.

This is meant to be a research demo for the quality of the model. There is no speed-up implemented yet.

Roadmap

Over the next few months, we will continue offering 2-bit and 1-bit versions of LLaMA models. Additionally, we are considering the provision of low-bit versions for other open-source LLMs in the future.

Latest Updates

[12/14/2023] We are happy to release the lossless (<1%) W4A16 01-Yi models (low_bit_yi branch). The 2-bit version will be made open soon.

[10/04/2023] We are happy to release the W2A16 g8/32 TinyLLaMA-1.1B models.

[09/29/2023] We are happy to release the W2A16 g8 LLaMA-1 30B and LLaMA-2 70B models.

[09/12/2023] We are happy to announce the release of the 2-bit LLaMA-2 7B (W2A16 g32/g8) models.

[08/31/2023] We are happy to release the harness benchmarks on 14 zero-shot tasks based on our 2-bit models. Happy trying 😃🚀.

[08/16/2023] We are happy to release the 2-bit OpenLLaMA 3B models, which are quantized into 2-bit representation yet still with strong performance 😃⭐.

Requirements

The inference currently requires a machine with CUDA installed. Then you can simply run:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Try the model

Use the environment variable CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES to select the correct GPU. Multi-GPU is not supported, but the model is very compressed, so 1 GPU should be enough. To use the instruction-tuned model, you can use the following commands in scripts/. Predefined scripts already there:

bash scripts/evaluate/tiny_llama_w2a16g32.sh    # for open task evaluation of the base model.
bash scripts/inference/llama2_70b_w2a16g8.sh     # for text generation inference of the base model.
bash scripts/instruction-chat/llama2_70b_w2a16g8.sh  # for instruction following chat of the fine-tuned model.
bash scripts/inference/codellama_34b_w2a16g8.sh         # for text generation inference of the codellama model
