+# 🚀 Falcon-11B
+
+**Falcon-11B is a 11B parameters causal decoder-only model built by [TII](https://www.tii.ae) and trained over 5,000B tokens of [RefinedWeb](https://huggingface.co/datasets/tiiuae/falcon-refinedweb) enhanced with curated corpora. The model is made available under the Apache 2.0 license.**
+
+*Paper coming soon 😊.*
+
+
+🤗 To get started with Falcon (inference, finetuning, quantization, etc.), we recommend reading [this great blogpost fron HF](https://huggingface.co/blog/falcon)!
+
+⚠️ **This is a raw, pretrained model, which should be further finetuned for most usecases.** If you are looking for a version better suited to taking generic instructions in a chat format, we recommend taking a look at [Falcon-11B-Chat](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-11B-chat). 
+
+```python
+from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
+import transformers
+import torch
+
+model = "tiiuae/falcon-11B"
+
+tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model)
+pipeline = transformers.pipeline(
+    "text-generation",
+    model=model,
+    tokenizer=tokenizer,
+    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
+    trust_remote_code=True,
+    device_map="auto",
+)
+sequences = pipeline(
+   "Girafatron is obsessed with giraffes, the most glorious animal on the face of this Earth. Giraftron believes all other animals are irrelevant when compared to the glorious majesty of the giraffe.\nDaniel: Hello, Girafatron!\nGirafatron:",
+    max_length=200,
+    do_sample=True,
+    top_k=10,
+    num_return_sequences=1,
+    eos_token_id=tokenizer.eos_token_id,
+)
+for seq in sequences:
+    print(f"Result: {seq['generated_text']}")
+
+```
+
+💥 **Falcon LLMs require PyTorch 2.0 for use with `transformers`!**

+## Model Details
+
+### Model Description
+
+- **Developed by:** [https://www.tii.ae](https://www.tii.ae);
+- **Model type:** Causal decoder-only;
+- **Language(s) (NLP):** English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Polish, Dutch, Romanian, Czech, Swedish
+- **License:** TII Falcon License 2.0
+
+### Model Source
+
+- **Paper:** *coming soon*.
+
+## Uses
+
+### Direct Use
+
+Research on large language models; as a foundation for further specialization and finetuning for specific usecases (e.g., summarization, text generation, chatbot, etc.)
+
+### Out-of-Scope Use
+
+Production use without adequate assessment of risks and mitigation; any use cases which may be considered irresponsible or harmful. 
+
+## Bias, Risks, and Limitations
+
+Falcon-11B is trained mostly on English, but also German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Polish, Dutch, Romanian, Czech, Swedish. It will not generalize appropriately to other languages. Furthermore, as it is trained on a large-scale corpora representative of the web, it will carry the stereotypes and biases commonly encountered online.
+
+### Recommendations
+
+We recommend users of Falcon-11B to consider finetuning it for the specific set of tasks of interest, and for guardrails and appropriate precautions to be taken for any production use.
+

+
+## Training Details
+
+### Training Data
+
+Falcon-11B was trained over 5,000B tokens of [RefinedWeb](https://huggingface.co/datasets/tiiuae/falcon-refinedweb), a high-quality filtered and deduplicated web dataset which we enhanced with curated corpora. It followed a 4 stage training strategy. The first three stages being focused on increasing the context length, from to 2048 to 4096 and finally to 8192 tokens. The last stage aimed to further enhance performance using only high quality data.
+
+Overall, the data sources included RefinedWeb-English, Refined Web-Europe (en, de, es, fr, it, pt, pl, nl, ro, sv, cs), high quality technical data, code data, and conversational data extracted from public sources.

+
+| Technical          | 2%           | 20B        | arXiv, PubMed, USPTO, etc.        |
+
+The training stages were as follows:
+
+| **Stage** | **Context length** | ** Tokens** |
+|--------------|-----------------|-------------|
+| Stage 1      | 2048            | 4500B       |
+| Stage 2      | 4096            | 250B        |
+| Stage 3      | 8192            | 250B        |
+| Stage 4      | 8192            | 240B        |
+
+
+The data was tokenized with the Falcon-[7B](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-7b)/[11B](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-11B) tokenizer.
+
+### Training Procedure 
+
+Falcon-11B was trained on 1024 A100 40GB GPUs, using a 3D parallelism strategy (TP=8, PP=1, DP=128) combined with ZeRO.

+
+## Technical Specifications 
+
+### Model Architecture and Objective
+
+Falcon-11B is a causal decoder-only model trained on a causal language modeling task (i.e., predict the next token).
+
+The architecture is broadly adapted from the GPT-3 paper ([Brown et al., 2020](https://arxiv.org/abs/2005.14165)), with the following differences:
+
+* **Positionnal embeddings:** rotary ([Su et al., 2021](https://arxiv.org/abs/2104.09864));
+* **Attention:** multiquery ([Shazeer et al., 2019](https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.02150)) and FlashAttention ([Dao et al., 2022](https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.14135));
+* **Decoder-block:** parallel attention/MLP with a two layer norms.
+
+For multiquery, we are using an internal variant which uses independent key and values per tensor parallel degree.
