Overview

This is a fork of QLoRA

Differences from original

Since I am the creator of the various airoboros models, this fork is made specifically for airoboros, and does slightly differ from the main upstream repo.

airoboros chat support

airoboros datasets starting from 3.0 onwards are using conversational style datasets (e.g. sharegpt)

Add --dataset_format airoboros_chat

This uses llama-2 chat prompt format!

legacy airoboros support

For versions 2.2.1 and earlier

The instructions.jsonl file (or whatever filename you are using), should be a single JSON string per line, newline separated, with "instruction" and "response" values.

Add: --dataset_format airoboros

epochs instead of steps

I prefer using a fixed number of epochs in training rather than trying to stop are a particular step count. I removed the --max_steps parameter in favor of --num_train_epochs (which I usually set to 3)

Full, non-(q)lora fine-tune example

Example used for the llama-2 7b airoboros, version 3.0:

Requirements for the old, llama-1 models

For the original llama models (not llama-2), I was using one of these:

I replaced special_tokens_map.json and tokenizer_config.json within the base models with the versions found in llama-1-patch in this repo.
