# 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 A100-80GB GPU in our [blogpost](www.mosaicml.com/blog/mpt-7b).

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

## How to Use

Note: This model requires that `trust_remote_code=True` be passed to the `from_pretrained` method. This is because we use a custom model architecture that is not yet part of the `transformers` package.

It includes options for many training efficiency features such as [FlashAttention (Dao et al. 2022)](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2205.14135.pdf), [ALiBi](https://arxiv.org/abs/2108.12409), QK LayerNorm, and more.

```python
import transformers
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained('mosaicml/mpt-7b-storywriter', trust_remote_code=True, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16)
```

To use the optimized triton implementation of FlashAttention, you can load with `attn_impl='triton'` and move the model to `bfloat16` like so:

```python
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained('mosaicml/mpt-7b-storywriter', trust_remote_code=True, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, attn_impl='triton')
model.to(device='cuda:0', dtype=torch.bfloat16)
```

Although the model was trained with a sequence length of 2048, ALiBi enables users to increase the maximum sequence length during finetuning and/or inference. For example:

```python
config = transformers.AutoConfig.from_pretrained('mosaicml/mpt-7b-storywriter', trust_remote_code=True)
config.update({"max_seq_len": 4096})
model = transformers.AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained('mosaicml/mpt-7b-storywriter', config=config, trust_remote_code=True)
```

This model was trained with the [EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b) tokenizer.

```python
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("EleutherAI/gpt-neox-20b")
```

## 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

## 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.

## Limitations and Biases

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

MPT-7B-Instruct can produce factually incorrect output, and should not be relied on to produce factually accurate information.
MPT-7B-Instruct 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.
