It is made available under the [Falcon-180B TII License](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-180B-chat/blob/main/LICENSE.txt) and [Acceptable Use Policy](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-180B-chat/blob/main/ACCEPTABLE_USE_POLICY.txt).** *Paper coming soon* 😊 🤗 To get started with Falcon (inference, finetuning, quantization, etc.), we recommend reading [this great blogpost from HF](https://hf.co/blog/falcon-180b) or this [one](https://huggingface.co/blog/falcon) from the release of the 40B! Note that since the 180B is larger than what can easily be handled with `transformers`+`acccelerate`, we recommend using [Text Generation Inference](https://github.com/huggingface/text-generation-inference). You will need **at least 400GB of memory** to swiftly run inference with Falcon-180B. ## Why use Falcon-180B-chat? * ✨ **You are looking for a ready-to-use chat/instruct model based on [Falcon-180B](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-180B).** * **It is the best open-access model currently available, and one of the best model overall.** Falcon-180B outperforms [LLaMA-2](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-2-70b-hf), [StableLM](https://github.com/Stability-AI/StableLM), [RedPajama](https://huggingface.co/togethercomputer/RedPajama-INCITE-Base-7B-v0.1), [MPT](https://huggingface.co/mosaicml/mpt-7b), etc. See the [OpenLLM Leaderboard](https://huggingface.co/spaces/HuggingFaceH4/open_llm_leaderboard). * **It features an architecture optimized for inference**, with multiquery ([Shazeer et al., 2019](https://arxiv.org/abs/1911.02150)). * **It is made available under a permissive license allowing for commercial use**. 💬 **This is a Chat model, which may not be ideal for further finetuning.** If you are interested in building your own instruct/chat model, we recommend starting from [Falcon-180B](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-180b). 💸 **Looking for a smaller, less expensive model?** [Falcon-7B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-7b-instruct) and [Falcon-40B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-40b-instruct) are Falcon-180B-Chat's little brothers! 💥 **Falcon LLMs require PyTorch 2.0 for use with `transformers`!** # Model Card for Falcon-180B-Chat ## 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 (and limited capabilities in Italian, Portuguese, Polish, Dutch, Romanian, Czech, Swedish); - **License:** [Falcon-180B TII License](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-180B-chat/blob/main/LICENSE.txt) and [Acceptable Use Policy](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-180B-chat/blob/main/ACCEPTABLE_USE_POLICY.txt). ### Model Source - **Paper:** *coming soon*. ## Uses See the [acceptable use policy](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-180B-chat/blob/main/ACCEPTABLE_USE_POLICY.txt). ### Direct Use Falcon-180B-Chat has been finetuned on a chat dataset. ### 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-180B-Chat is mostly trained on English data, and 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-180B-Chat to develop guardrails and to take appropriate precautions for any production use. ## How to Get Started with the Model To run inference with the model in full `bfloat16` precision you need approximately 8xA100 80GB or equivalent. ```python from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM import transformers import torch model = "tiiuae/falcon-180B-chat" 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']}") ``` ## Training Details **Falcon-180B-Chat is based on [Falcon-180B](https://huggingface.co/tiiuae/falcon-180B).** ### Training Data Falcon-180B-Chat is finetuned on a mixture of [Ultrachat](https://huggingface.co/datasets/stingning/ultrachat), [Platypus](https://huggingface.co/datasets/garage-bAInd/Open-Platypus) and [Airoboros](https://huggingface.co/datasets/jondurbin/airoboros-2.1). The data was tokenized with the Falcon tokenizer. ## Evaluation *Paper coming soon.* See the [OpenLLM Leaderboard](https://huggingface.co/spaces/HuggingFaceH4/open_llm_leaderboard) for early results. ## Technical Specifications ### Model Architecture and Objective Falcon-180B-Chat 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. | **Hyperparameter** | **Value** | **Comment** | |--------------------|-----------|----------------------------------------| | Layers | 80 | | | `d_model` | 14848 | | | `head_dim` | 64 | Reduced to optimise for FlashAttention | | Vocabulary | 65024 | | | Sequence length | 2048 | | ### Compute Infrastructure #### Hardware Falcon-180B-Chat was trained on AWS SageMaker, on up to 4,096 A100 40GB GPUs in P4d instances. #### Software Falcon-180B-Chat was trained a custom distributed training codebase, Gigatron. It uses a 3D parallelism approach combined with ZeRO and high-performance Triton kernels (FlashAttention, etc.) ## Citation *Paper coming soon* 😊.
