# StableBeluga 13B - GGUF
- Model creator: [Stability AI](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai)
- Original model: [StableBeluga 13B](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/StableBeluga-13B)
## Description
This repo contains GGUF format model files for [Stability AI's StableBeluga 13B](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/StableBeluga-13B).
### About GGUF
GGUF is a new format introduced by the llama.cpp team on August 21st 2023. It is a replacement for GGML, which is no longer supported by llama.cpp. GGUF offers numerous advantages over GGML, such as better tokenisation, and support for special tokens. It is also supports metadata, and is designed to be extensible.
Here is an incomplate list of clients and libraries that are known to support GGUF:
* [llama.cpp](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp). The source project for GGUF. Offers a CLI and a server option.
* [text-generation-webui](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui), the most widely used web UI, with many features and powerful extensions. Supports GPU acceleration.
* [KoboldCpp](https://github.com/LostRuins/koboldcpp), a fully featured web UI, with GPU accel across all platforms and GPU architectures. Especially good for story telling.
* [LM Studio](https://lmstudio.ai/), an easy-to-use and powerful local GUI for Windows and macOS (Silicon), with GPU acceleration.
* [LoLLMS Web UI](https://github.com/ParisNeo/lollms-webui), a great web UI with many interesting and unique features, including a full model library for easy model selection.
* [Faraday.dev](https://faraday.dev/), an attractive and easy to use character-based chat GUI for Windows and macOS (both Silicon and Intel), with GPU acceleration.
* [ctransformers](https://github.com/marella/ctransformers), a Python library with GPU accel, LangChain support, and OpenAI-compatible AI server.
* [llama-cpp-python](https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python), a Python library with GPU accel, LangChain support, and OpenAI-compatible API server.
* [candle](https://github.com/huggingface/candle), a Rust ML framework with a focus on performance, including GPU support, and ease of use.

## Compatibility
These quantised GGUFv2 files are compatible with llama.cpp from August 27th onwards, as of commit [d0cee0d36d5be95a0d9088b674dbb27354107221](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/commit/d0cee0d36d5be95a0d9088b674dbb27354107221)
They are also compatible with many third party UIs and libraries - please see the list at the top of this README.
## Explanation of quantisation methods
Click to see details
The new methods available are:
* GGML_TYPE_Q2_K - "type-1" 2-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weight. Block scales and mins are quantized with 4 bits. This ends up effectively using 2.5625 bits per weight (bpw)
* GGML_TYPE_Q3_K - "type-0" 3-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 6 bits. This end up using 3.4375 bpw.
* GGML_TYPE_Q4_K - "type-1" 4-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 8 blocks, each block having 32 weights. Scales and mins are quantized with 6 bits. This ends up using 4.5 bpw.
* GGML_TYPE_Q5_K - "type-1" 5-bit quantization. Same super-block structure as GGML_TYPE_Q4_K resulting in 5.5 bpw
* GGML_TYPE_Q6_K - "type-0" 6-bit quantization. Super-blocks with 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 8 bits. This ends up using 6.5625 bpw

**Note**: the above RAM figures assume no GPU offloading. If layers are offloaded to the GPU, this will reduce RAM usage and use VRAM instead.
## How to download GGUF files
**Note for manual downloaders:** You almost never want to clone the entire repo! Multiple different quantisation formats are provided, and most users only want to pick and download a single file.
The following clients/libraries will automatically download models for you, providing a list of available models to choose from:
- LM Studio
- LoLLMS Web UI
- Faraday.dev
### In `text-generation-webui`
Under Download Model, you can enter the model repo: TheBloke/StableBeluga-13B-GGUF and below it, a specific filename to download, such as: stablebeluga-13b.q4_K_M.gguf.
Then click Download.
### On the command line, including multiple files at once
I recommend using the `huggingface-hub` Python library:
```shell
pip3 install huggingface-hub>=0.17.1
```
Then you can download any individual model file to the current directory, at high speed, with a command like this:
```shell
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/StableBeluga-13B-GGUF stablebeluga-13b.q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False
```
More advanced huggingface-cli download usage
You can also download multiple files at once with a pattern:
```shell
huggingface-cli download TheBloke/StableBeluga-13B-GGUF --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False --include='*Q4_K*gguf'
```
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
HUGGINGFACE_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1 huggingface-cli download TheBloke/StableBeluga-13B-GGUF stablebeluga-13b.q4_K_M.gguf --local-dir . --local-dir-use-symlinks False
```
Windows CLI users: Use `set HUGGINGFACE_HUB_ENABLE_HF_TRANSFER=1` before running the download command.
## Example `llama.cpp` command
Make sure you are using `llama.cpp` from commit [d0cee0d36d5be95a0d9088b674dbb27354107221](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/commit/d0cee0d36d5be95a0d9088b674dbb27354107221) or later.
```shell
./main -ngl 32 -m stablebeluga-13b.q4_K_M.gguf --color -c 4096 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "### System:\n{system_message}\n\n### User:\n{prompt}\n\n### Assistant:"
```
Change `-ngl 32` to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.
Change `-c 4096` to the desired sequence length. For extended sequence models - eg 8K, 16K, 32K - the necessary RoPE scaling parameters are read from the GGUF file and set by llama.cpp automatically.
If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the `-p ` argument with `-i -ins`
For other parameters and how to use them, please refer to [the llama.cpp documentation](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/examples/main/README.md)
## How to run in `text-generation-webui`
Further instructions here: [text-generation-webui/docs/llama.cpp.md](https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui/blob/main/docs/llama.cpp.md).
## How to run from Python code
You can use GGUF models from Python using the [llama-cpp-python](https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python) or [ctransformers](https://github.com/marella/ctransformers) libraries.
### How to load this model from Python using ctransformers
#### First install the package
```bash
# Base ctransformers with no GPU acceleration
pip install ctransformers>=0.2.24
# Or with CUDA GPU acceleration
pip install ctransformers[cuda]>=0.2.24
# Or with ROCm GPU acceleration
CT_HIPBLAS=1 pip install ctransformers>=0.2.24 --no-binary ctransformers
# Or with Metal GPU acceleration for macOS systems
CT_METAL=1 pip install ctransformers>=0.2.24 --no-binary ctransformers
```
#### Simple example code to load one of these GGUF models
```python
from ctransformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
# Set gpu_layers to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Set to 0 if no GPU acceleration is available on your system.
llm = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("TheBloke/StableBeluga-13B-GGUF", model_file="stablebeluga-13b.q4_K_M.gguf", model_type="llama", gpu_layers=50)
print(llm("AI is going to"))
```

## Model Description
`Stable Beluga 13B` is a Llama2 13B model finetuned on an Orca style Dataset
## Usage
Start chatting with `Stable Beluga 13B` using the following code snippet:
```python
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, pipeline
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("stabilityai/StableBeluga-13B", use_fast=False)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("stabilityai/StableBeluga-13B", torch_dtype=torch.float16, low_cpu_mem_usage=True, device_map="auto")
system_prompt = "### System:\nYou are Stable Beluga 13B, an AI that follows instructions extremely well. Help as much as you can. Remember, be safe, and don't do anything illegal.\n\n"
message = "Write me a poem please"
prompt = f"{system_prompt}### User: {message}\n\n### Assistant:\n"
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
output = model.generate(**inputs, do_sample=True, top_p=0.95, top_k=0, max_new_tokens=256)
print(tokenizer.decode(output[0], skip_special_tokens=True))
```
Stable Beluga 13B should be used with this prompt format:
```
### System:
This is a system prompt, please behave and help the user.
### User:
Your prompt here
### Assistant
The output of Stable Beluga 13B
```
## Model Details
* **Developed by**: [Stability AI](https://stability.ai/)
* **Model type**: Stable Beluga 13B is an auto-regressive language model fine-tuned on Llama2 13B.
* **Language(s)**: English
* **Library**: [HuggingFace Transformers](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers)
* **License**: Fine-tuned checkpoints (`Stable Beluga 13B`) is licensed under the [STABLE BELUGA NON-COMMERCIAL COMMUNITY LICENSE AGREEMENT](https://huggingface.co/stabilityai/StableBeluga-13B/blob/main/LICENSE.txt)

### Training Dataset
` Stable Beluga 13B` is trained on our internal Orca-style dataset
### Training Procedure
Models are learned via supervised fine-tuning on the aforementioned datasets, trained in mixed-precision (BF16), and optimized with AdamW. We outline the following hyperparameters:
| Dataset | Batch Size | Learning Rate |Learning Rate Decay| Warm-up | Weight Decay | Betas |
|-------------------|------------|---------------|-------------------|---------|--------------|-------------|
| Orca pt1 packed | 256 | 3e-5 | Cosine to 3e-6 | 100 | 1e-6 | (0.9, 0.95) |
| Orca pt2 unpacked | 512 | 3e-5 | Cosine to 3e-6 | 100 | 1e-6 | (0.9, 0.95) |
## Ethical Considerations and Limitations
Beluga is a new technology that carries risks with use. Testing conducted to date has been in English, and has not covered, nor could it cover all scenarios. For these reasons, as with all LLMs, Beluga's potential outputs cannot be predicted in advance, and the model may in some instances produce inaccurate, biased or other objectionable responses to user prompts. Therefore, before deploying any applications of Beluga, developers should perform safety testing and tuning tailored to their specific applications of the model.
