How to Get Started with the Model

Please install transformers, safetensors and torch to use this model.

pip install transformers safetensors torch

Run the following Python code:

import torch
import transformers
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM


model_id = "stanford-crfm/levanter-backpack-1b"
config = transformers.AutoConfig.from_pretrained(model_id, trust_remote_code=True)
torch_model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_id, 
    config=config, 
    trust_remote_code=True
)
torch_model.eval()

input = torch.randint(0, 50264, (1, 512), dtype=torch.long)
torch_out = torch_model(input, position_ids=None,)
torch_out = torch.nn.functional.softmax(torch_out.logits, dim=-1)
print(torch_out.shape)
