# QwQ-32B-Preview

## Introduction

**QwQ-32B-Preview** is an experimental version developed by the Qwen Team as part of our efforts to create a reasoning model. It currently has the following limitations:

1. **Code Switching**: There may be instances of mixed languages in responses.
2. **Endless Repetition**: For certain complex logical problems, the model might engage in repetitive reasoning without reaching a answer.
3. **Safety Concerns**: The model's safety measures need further enhancement to ensure reliable and secure performance.
4. **Performance**: QwQ-32B-preview is just our early experimental version, and it has only been optimized for reasoning tasks such as Code and Math.

**Specification**:
- Type: Causal Language Models
- Training Stage: Pretraining & Post-training
- Architecture: transformers with RoPE, SwiGLU, RMSNorm, and Attention QKV bias
- Number of Parameters: 32.5B
- Number of Paramaters (Non-Embedding): 31.0B
- Number of Layers: 64
- Number of Attention Heads (GQA): 40 for Q and 8 for KV
- Context Length: Full 32,768 tokens

For more details, please refer to our [blog](https://qwenlm.github.io/blog/qwq-32b-preview/). You can also check Qwen2.5 [GitHub](https://github.com/QwenLM/Qwen2.5), and [Documentation](https://qwen.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).

## Requirements

The code of Qwen2.5 has been in the latest Hugging face `transformers` and we advise you to use the latest version of `transformers`.

With `transformers<4.37.0`, you will encounter the following error:
```
KeyError: 'qwen2'
```

## Quickstart

Here provides a code snippet with `apply_chat_template` to show you how to load the tokenizer and model and how to generate contents.

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_name = "Qwen/QwQ-32B-Preview"

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_name,
    torch_dtype="auto",
    device_map="auto"
)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)

prompt = "How many r in strawberry."
messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful and harmless assistant. You are Qwen developed by Alibaba. You should think step-by-step."},
    {"role": "user", "content": prompt}
]
text = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
    messages,
    tokenize=False,
    add_generation_prompt=True
)
model_inputs = tokenizer([text], return_tensors="pt").to(model.device)

generated_ids = model.generate(
    **model_inputs,
    max_new_tokens=512
)
generated_ids = [
    output_ids[len(input_ids):] for input_ids, output_ids in zip(model_inputs.input_ids, generated_ids)
]

response = tokenizer.batch_decode(generated_ids, skip_special_tokens=True)[0]
```
