# Discolm Mixtral 8X7B v2 - GPTQ
- Model creator: [Disco Research](https://huggingface.co/DiscoResearch)
- Original model: [Discolm Mixtral 8X7B v2](https://huggingface.co/DiscoResearch/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2)

# WARNING - I CAN'T GET THESE GPTQ QUANTS TO WORK

Unfortunately, after 10 hours quanting at not insignificant cost, they don't actually appear to work.

I will leave them up in case any solution presents itself soon.  But for now, I get errors like this

```

# Description

This repo contains GPTQ model files for [Disco Research's Discolm Mixtral 8X7B v2](https://huggingface.co/DiscoResearch/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2).

**Experimental model**

This is an experimental GPTQ of MistralAI's Mixtral 7B 8Expert.

This is a quantisation of an unofficial implementation of Mixtral 7B 8Experted, created and hosted by DiscoResearch at: [DiscoResearch/mixtral-7b-8expert](https://huggingface.co/DiscoResearch/mixtral-7b-8expert).

To use it requires:
* Latest Transformers, installed from Github:
```
pip3 install git+https://github.com/huggingface/transformers.git
```
* `trust_remote_code=True`

Note that I have not yet tested the model myself, I will update when I know VRAM requirements.

Multiple GPTQ parameter permutations are provided; see Provided Files below for details of the options provided, their parameters, and the software used to create them.

## Provided files, and GPTQ parameters

Multiple quantisation parameters are provided, to allow you to choose the best one for your hardware and requirements.

Each separate quant is in a different branch.  See below for instructions on fetching from different branches.

Most GPTQ files are made with AutoGPTQ. Mistral models are currently made with Transformers.

<details>
  <summary>Explanation of GPTQ parameters</summary>

- Bits: The bit size of the quantised model.
- GS: GPTQ group size. Higher numbers use less VRAM, but have lower quantisation accuracy. "None" is the lowest possible value.
- Act Order: True or False. Also known as `desc_act`. True results in better quantisation accuracy. Some GPTQ clients have had issues with models that use Act Order plus Group Size, but this is generally resolved now.
- Damp %: A GPTQ parameter that affects how samples are processed for quantisation. 0.01 is default, but 0.1 results in slightly better accuracy.
- GPTQ dataset: The calibration dataset used during quantisation. Using a dataset more appropriate to the model's training can improve quantisation accuracy. Note that the GPTQ calibration dataset is not the same as the dataset used to train the model - please refer to the original model repo for details of the training dataset(s).
- Sequence Length: The length of the dataset sequences used for quantisation. Ideally this is the same as the model sequence length. For some very long sequence models (16+K), a lower sequence length may have to be used. Note that a lower sequence length does not limit the sequence length of the quantised model. It only impacts the quantisation accuracy on longer inference sequences.
- ExLlama Compatibility: Whether this file can be loaded with ExLlama, which currently only supports Llama and Mistral models in 4-bit.

## How to download, including from branches

### In text-generation-webui

To download from the `main` branch, enter `TheBloke/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ` in the "Download model" box.

To download from another branch, add `:branchname` to the end of the download name, eg `TheBloke/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ:gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True`

### From the command line

I recommend using the `huggingface-hub` Python library:

```shell
pip3 install huggingface-hub
```

To download the `main` branch to a folder called `DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ`:

```shell
mkdir DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ --local-dir DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False
```

To download from a different branch, add the `--revision` parameter:

```shell
mkdir DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ --revision gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True --local-dir DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False
```

<details>
  <summary>More advanced huggingface-cli download usage</summary>

If you remove the `--local-dir-use-symlinks False` parameter, the files will instead be stored in the central Hugging Face cache directory (default location on Linux is: `~/.cache/huggingface`), and symlinks will be added to the specified `--local-dir`, pointing to their real location in the cache. This allows for interrupted downloads to be resumed, and allows you to quickly clone the repo to multiple places on disk without triggering a download again. The downside, and the reason why I don't list that as the default option, is that the files are then hidden away in a cache folder and it's harder to know where your disk space is being used, and to clear it up if/when you want to remove a download model.

The cache location can be changed with the `HF_HOME` environment variable, and/or the `--cache-dir` parameter to `huggingface-cli`.

For more documentation on downloading with `huggingface-cli`, please see: [HF -> Hub Python Library -> Download files -> Download from the CLI](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/guides/download#download-from-the-cli).

To accelerate downloads on fast connections (1Gbit/s or higher), install `hf_transfer`:

```shell
pip3 install hf_transfer
```

And set environment variable `HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER` to `1`:

```shell
mkdir DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ
HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download TheBloke/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ --local-dir DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ --local-dir-use-symlinks False
```

Windows Command Line users: You can set the environment variable by running `set HF_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1` before the download command.
</details>

### With `git` (**not** recommended)

To clone a specific branch with `git`, use a command like this:

```shell
git clone --single-branch --branch gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ
```

Note that using Git with HF repos is strongly discouraged. It will be much slower than using `huggingface-hub`, and will use twice as much disk space as it has to store the model files twice (it stores every byte both in the intended target folder, and again in the `.git` folder as a blob.)

## How to easily download and use this model in [text-generation-webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui)

**NOTE** This likely doesn't work at the moment.

Please make sure you're using the latest version of [text-generation-webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/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/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ`.

    - To download from a specific branch, enter for example `TheBloke/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ:gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True`
    - see Provided Files above for the list of branches for each option.

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: `DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ`
7. The model will automatically load, and is now ready for use!
8. 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.

    - Note that you do not need to and should not set manual GPTQ parameters any more. These are set automatically from the file `quantize_config.json`.

9. Once you're ready, click the **Text Generation** tab and enter a prompt to get started!

<!-- README_GPTQ.md-use-from-tgi start -->
## Serving this model from Text Generation Inference (TGI)

**NOTE** This likely doesn't work at the moment.

It's recommended to use TGI version 1.1.0 or later. The official Docker container is: `ghcr.io/huggingface/text-generation-inference:1.1.0`

Example Docker parameters:

```shell
--model-id TheBloke/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ --port 3000 --quantize gptq --max-input-length 3696 --max-total-tokens 4096 --max-batch-prefill-tokens 4096
```

Example Python code for interfacing with TGI (requires huggingface-hub 0.17.0 or later):

```shell
pip3 install huggingface-hub
```

```python
from huggingface_hub import InferenceClient

endpoint_url = "https://your-endpoint-url-here"

prompt = "Tell me about AI"
prompt_template=f'''<|im_start|>system
{system_message}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
{prompt}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
'''

client = InferenceClient(endpoint_url)
response = client.text_generation(prompt,
                                  max_new_tokens=128,
                                  do_sample=True,
                                  temperature=0.7,
                                  top_p=0.95,
                                  top_k=40,
                                  repetition_penalty=1.1)

print(f"Model output: {response}")
```

<!-- README_GPTQ.md-use-from-python start -->
## Python code example: inference from this GPTQ model

**NOTE** I can't get this working yet.

### Install the necessary packages

Requires: Transformers 4.33.0 or later, Optimum 1.12.0 or later, and AutoGPTQ 0.4.2 or later.

```shell
pip3 install --upgrade transformers optimum
# If using PyTorch 2.1 + CUDA 12.x:
pip3 install --upgrade auto-gptq
# or, if using PyTorch 2.1 + CUDA 11.x:
pip3 install --upgrade auto-gptq --extra-index-url https://huggingface.github.io/autogptq-index/whl/cu118/
```

If you are using PyTorch 2.0, you will need to install AutoGPTQ from source. Likewise if you have problems with the pre-built wheels, you should try building from source:

```shell
pip3 uninstall -y auto-gptq
git clone https://github.com/PanQiWei/AutoGPTQ
cd AutoGPTQ
git checkout v0.5.1
pip3 install .
```

### Example Python code

```python
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, pipeline

model_name_or_path = "TheBloke/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2-GPTQ"
# To use a different branch, change revision
# For example: revision="gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True"
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path,
                                             device_map="auto",
                                             trust_remote_code=True,
                                             revision="main")

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path, use_fast=True)

prompt = "Tell me about AI"
prompt_template=f'''<|im_start|>system
{system_message}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
{prompt}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
'''

print("\n\n*** Generate:")

input_ids = tokenizer(prompt_template, return_tensors='pt').input_ids.cuda()
output = model.generate(inputs=input_ids, temperature=0.7, do_sample=True, top_p=0.95, top_k=40, max_new_tokens=512)
print(tokenizer.decode(output[0]))

# Inference can also be done using transformers' pipeline

print("*** Pipeline:")
pipe = pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model,
    tokenizer=tokenizer,
    max_new_tokens=512,
    do_sample=True,
    temperature=0.7,
    top_p=0.95,
    top_k=40,
    repetition_penalty=1.1
)

print(pipe(prompt_template)[0]['generated_text'])

# DiscoLM Mixtral 8x7b alpha

**DiscoLM Mixtral 8x7b alpha** is an experimental 8x7b MoE model based on [Mistral AI´s Mixtral 8x7b](https://twitter.com/MistralAI/status/1733150512395038967).
This model is based on experimental code converting the model weights to huggingface format and enabling Transformers-based inference. 
It was then finetuned on the Synthia, MethaMathQA und Capybara datasets. 
DiscoLM Mixtral 8x7b alpha is a [DiscoResearch](https://huggingface.co/DiscoResearch) project and was created by [Björn Plüster](https://huggingface.co/bjoernp) with lots of support from the community.

**Many thanks to [HessianAI](https://hessian.ai/) for providing the compute resources for this project and to the great people at [LAION](https://laion.ai) without whom this project would not have been possible!**

```python
chat = [
  {"role": "system", "content": "You are DiscoLM, a helpful assistant."},
  {"role": "user", "content": "Please tell me possible reasons to call a research collective Disco Research"}
]
tokenizer.apply_chat_template(chat, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
```

If you use `tokenize=True` and `return_tensors="pt"` instead, then you will get a tokenized and formatted conversation ready to pass to `model.generate()`.

Basic inference code:
```python
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("DiscoResearch/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2", low_cpu_mem_usage=True, device_map="auto", trust_remote_code=True)
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("DiscoResearch/DiscoLM-mixtral-8x7b-v2")
chat = [
  {"role": "system", "content": "You are DiscoLM, a helpful assistant."},
  {"role": "user", "content": "Please tell me possible reasons to call a research collective Disco Research"}
]
x = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(chat, tokenize=True, return_tensors="pt", add_generation_prompt=True).cuda()
x = model.generate(x, max_new_tokens=128).cpu()
print(tok.batch_decode(x))
```
