# Vicuna 33B V1.3 - AWQ
- Model creator: [Large Model Systems Organization](https://huggingface.co/lmsys)
- Original model: [Vicuna 33B V1.3](https://huggingface.co/lmsys/vicuna-33b-v1.3)
## Description
This repo contains AWQ model files for [LmSys' Vicuna 33B 1.3](https://huggingface.co/lmsys/vicuna-33b-v1.3).
### About AWQ
AWQ is an efficient, accurate and blazing-fast low-bit weight quantization method, currently supporting 4-bit quantization. Compared to GPTQ, it offers faster Transformers-based inference.
It is also now supported by continuous batching server [vLLM](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm), allowing use of Llama AWQ models for high-throughput concurrent inference in multi-user server scenarios.
As of September 25th 2023, preliminary Llama-only AWQ support has also been added to [Huggingface Text Generation Inference (TGI)](https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference).
Note that, at the time of writing, overall throughput is still lower than running vLLM or TGI with unquantised models, however using AWQ enables using much smaller GPUs which can lead to easier deployment and overall cost savings. For example, a 70B model can be run on 1 x 48GB GPU instead of 2 x 80GB.

## Provided files, and AWQ parameters
For my first release of AWQ models, I am releasing 128g models only. I will consider adding 32g as well if there is interest, and once I have done perplexity and evaluation comparisons, but at this time 32g models are still not fully tested with AutoAWQ and vLLM.
Models are released as sharded safetensors files.
| Branch | Bits | GS | AWQ Dataset | Seq Len | Size |

## Serving this model from vLLM
Documentation on installing and using vLLM [can be found here](https://vllm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
- When using vLLM as a server, pass the `--quantization awq` parameter, for example:
```shell
python3 python -m vllm.entrypoints.api_server --model TheBloke/vicuna-33B-AWQ --quantization awq --dtype half
```
Note: at the time of writing, vLLM has not yet done a new release with support for the `quantization` parameter.
If you try the code below and get an error about `quantization` being unrecognised, please install vLLM from Github source.
When using vLLM from Python code, pass the `quantization=awq` parameter, for example:
```python
from vllm import LLM, SamplingParams
prompts = [
"Hello, my name is",
"The president of the United States is",
"The capital of France is",
"The future of AI is",
]
sampling_params = SamplingParams(temperature=0.8, top_p=0.95)
llm = LLM(model="TheBloke/vicuna-33B-AWQ", quantization="awq", dtype="half")
outputs = llm.generate(prompts, sampling_params)
# Print the outputs.
for output in outputs:
prompt = output.prompt
generated_text = output.outputs[0].text
print(f"Prompt: {prompt!r}, Generated text: {generated_text!r}")
```
## How to use this AWQ model from Python code
### Install the necessary packages
Requires: [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ) 0.0.2 or later
```shell
pip3 install autoawq
```
If you have problems installing [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ) using the pre-built wheels, install it from source instead:
```shell
pip3 uninstall -y autoawq
git clone https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ
cd AutoAWQ
pip3 install .
```
### You can then try the following example code
```python
from awq import AutoAWQForCausalLM
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
model_name_or_path = "TheBloke/vicuna-33B-AWQ"
# Load model
model = AutoAWQForCausalLM.from_quantized(model_name_or_path, fuse_layers=True,
trust_remote_code=False, safetensors=True)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path, trust_remote_code=False)
prompt = "Tell me about AI"
prompt_template=f'''A chat between a curious user and an artificial intelligence assistant. The assistant gives helpful, detailed, and polite answers to the user's questions. USER: {prompt} ASSISTANT:
'''
print("\n\n*** Generate:")
tokens = tokenizer(
prompt_template,
return_tensors='pt'
).input_ids.cuda()
# Generate output
generation_output = model.generate(
tokens,
do_sample=True,
temperature=0.7,
top_p=0.95,
top_k=40,
max_new_tokens=512
)
print("Output: ", tokenizer.decode(generation_output[0]))
"""
# Inference should be possible with transformers pipeline as well in future
# But currently this is not yet supported by AutoAWQ (correct as of September 25th 2023)
from transformers import 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'])
"""
```
## Compatibility
The files provided are tested to work with [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ), and [vLLM](https://github.com/vllm-project/vllm).
[Huggingface Text Generation Inference (TGI)](https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference) merged AWQ support on September 25th, 2023: [TGI PR #1054](https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference/pull/1054). Use the `:latest` Docker container until the next TGI release is made.
At the time of writing (25th September) TGI's PR appears not to work with 70B models, but this is likely to be fixed quickly.
