# Original model card:

## MPT-7B-StoryWriter-65k+

MPT-7B-StoryWriter-65k+ is a model designed to read and write fictional stories with super long context lengths.
It was built by finetuning MPT-7B with a context length of 65k tokens on a filtered fiction subset of the [books3 dataset](https://huggingface.co/datasets/the_pile_books3).
At inference time, thanks to [ALiBi](https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.12409), MPT-7B-StoryWriter-65k+ can extrapolate even beyond 65k tokens.
We demonstrate generations as long as 84k tokens on a single node of 8 A100-80GB GPUs in our [blogpost](https://www.mosaicml.com/blog/mpt-7b).

This model was trained by [MosaicML](https://www.mosaicml.com) and follows a modified decoder-only transformer architecture.

### Model Date

May 5, 2023

### Model License

Apache 2.0


### Model Description

The architecture is a modification of a standard decoder-only transformer.

The model has been modified from a standard transformer in the following ways:
* It uses [FlashAttention](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.14135.pdf)
* It uses [ALiBi (Attention with Linear Biases)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.12409) and does not use positional embeddings
* It does not use biases


| Hyperparameter | Value |
|----------------|-------|
|n_parameters | 6.7B |
|n_layers | 32 |
| n_heads | 32 |
| d_model | 4096 |
| vocab size | 50432 |
| sequence length | **65536** |

### PreTraining Data

For more details on the pretraining process, see [MPT-7B](https://huggingface.co/mosaicml/mpt-7b).

The data was tokenized using the [EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b) tokenizer.

#### Training Configuration

This model was trained on 8 A100-80GBs for about 2 days using the [MosaicML Platform](https://www.mosaicml.com/platform). 
The model was trained with sharded data parallelism using [FSDP](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/fsdp.html) and used the [LION](https://arxiv.org/abs/2302.06675) optimizer. 

### Limitations and Biases

_The following language is modified from [EleutherAI's GPT-NeoX-20B](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b)_

MPT-7B-StoryWriter can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate information.
MPT-7B-StoryWriter was trained on various public datasets.
While great efforts have been taken to clean the pretraining data, it is possible that this model could generate lewd, biased or otherwise offensive outputs.
