# ⚡ Lit-LLaMA ️
Independent implementation of [LLaMA]() pretraining, finetuning, and inference code that is fully open source under the **Apache 2.0 license.**
This implementation builds on [nanoGPT]().
The open-source code in this repository works with the original LLaMA weights that are distributed by Meta under a [research-only license](https://github.com/facebookresearch/llama/blob/main/MODEL_CARD.md#model-details).
## Looking for LLaMA 2?
Meta AI has since released LLaMA 2. Additionally, new Apache 2.0 licensed weights are being released as part of the [Open LLaMA project](https://github.com/openlm-research/open_llama).
To run LLaMA 2 weights, Open LLaMA weights, or Vicuna weights (among other LLaMA-like checkpoints), **check out the [Lit-GPT repository](https://github.com/Lightning-AI/lit-gpt)**.
## Why?
We believe that AI should be fully open source and part of the collective knowledge.
The original [LLaMA code](https://github.com/facebookresearch/llama) is [GPL licensed](https://github.com/facebookresearch/llama/blob/main/LICENSE) which means any project using it must also be released under GPL.
This "taints" any other code and prevents integration with the rest of the ecosystem.
**Lit-LLaMA solves that for good.**
## Design principles
**Lit-LLaMA** is:
- **Simple:** Single-file implementation without boilerplate.
- **Correct:** Numerically equivalent to the original model.
- **Optimized:** Runs on consumer hardware or at scale.
- **Open-source:** No strings attached.

## Setup
Clone the repo
```bash
git clone https://github.com/Lightning-AI/lit-llama
cd lit-llama
```
install dependencies
```bash
pip install -r requirements.txt
```
You are all set! 🎉
## Use the model
To generate text predictions, you need to download the model weights. **If you don't have them, check out our [guide](howto/download_weights.md).**
Run inference:
```bash
python generate.py --prompt "Hello, my name is"
```
This will run the 7B model and require ~26 GB of GPU memory (A100 GPU).
[Full guide for generating samples from the model](howto/inference.md).
### Run Lit-LLaMA on consumer devices
On GPUs with `bfloat16` support, the `generate.py` script will automatically convert the weights and consume about ~14 GB.
For GPUs with less memory, or ones that don't support `bfloat16`, enable quantization (`--quantize llm.int8`):
```bash
python generate.py --quantize llm.int8 --prompt "Hello, my name is"
```
See `python generate.py --help` for more options.
You can also use GPTQ-style int4 quantization, but this needs conversions of the weights first:
```bash
python quantize/gptq.py --output_path checkpoints/lit-llama/7B/llama-gptq.4bit.pth --dtype bfloat16 --quantize gptq.int4
```
GPTQ-style int4 quantization brings GPU usage down to about ~5GB. As only the weights of the Linear layers are quantized, it is useful to also use `--dtype bfloat16` even with the quantization enabled.
With the generated quantized checkpoint generation quantization then works as usual with `--quantize gptq.int4` and the newly generated checkpoint file:
```bash
python generate.py --quantize gptq.int4 --checkpoint_path checkpoints/lit-llama/7B/llama-gptq.4bit.pth
```
[Full guide for generating samples from the model](howto/inference.md).
## Finetune the model
We provide a simple training scripts in `finetune/lora.py` and `finetune/adapter.py` that instruction-tunes a pretrained model on the [Alpaca](https://github.com/tatsu-lab/stanford_alpaca) dataset using the techniques of [LoRA](https://arxiv.org/abs/2106.09685) and [Adapter](https://arxiv.org/abs/2303.16199).
1. Download the data and generate a instruction tuning dataset:
```bash
python scripts/prepare_alpaca.py
```
2. Run the finetuning script
```bash
python finetune/lora.py
```
or
```bash
python finetune/adapter.py
```
It is expected that you have downloaded the pretrained weights as described above.
The finetuning requires at least one GPU with ~24 GB memory (RTX 3090). Follow the instructions in the script to efficiently fit your GPU memory.
Note: For some GPU models you might need to set `torch.backends.cuda.enable_flash_sdp(False)` (see comments at the top of the script).
More details about each finetuning method and how you can apply it to your own data can be found in our technical how-to guides.

## Pre-training
We provide a simple training script based on Fabric if you want to venture into pre-training on RedPajama, a reproduction of the original LLaMA dataset.
Conversion scripts for our optimized streaming `PackedDataset` are included.
Follow this guide to start pre-training on the RedPajama dataset:
