Weak or ambiguous signals. Best guess based on catalog patterns; treat as tentative and check the evidence below.
  • 'uncensored' in name/tags but no 'abliterated' marker
  • method not identifiable from author declaration alone

Eric Hartford's WizardLM Uncensored Falcon 40B GPTQ

This repo contains an experimental GPTQ 4bit model of Eric Hartford's WizardLM Uncensored Falcon 40B.

It is the result of quantising to 4bit using AutoGPTQ.

Repositories available

Prompt template

Prompt format is WizardLM.

What is a falcon?  Can I keep one as a pet?
### Response:

EXPERIMENTAL

Please note this is an experimental GPTQ model. Support for it is currently quite limited.

It is also expected to be VERY SLOW. This is unavoidable at the moment, but is being looked at.

text-generation-webui

This requires text-generation-webui version of commit 204731952ae59d79ea3805a425c73dd171d943c3 or newer.

So please first update text-generation-webui to the latest version.

How to download and use this model in text-generation-webui

  1. Launch text-generation-webui
  2. Click the Model tab.
  3. Untick Autoload model
  4. Under Download custom model or LoRA, enter TheBloke/WizardLM-Uncensored-Falcon-40B-GPTQ.
  5. Click Download.
  6. Wait until it says it's finished downloading.
  7. Click the Refresh icon next to Model in the top left.
  8. In the Model drop-down: choose the model you just downloaded, WizardLM-Uncensored-Falcon-40B-GPTQ.
  9. Make sure Loader is set to AutoGPTQ. This model will not work with ExLlama or GPTQ-for-LLaMa.
  10. Tick Trust Remote Code, followed by Save Settings
  11. Click Reload.
  12. Once it says it's loaded, click the Text Generation tab and enter a prompt!

Python inference

To use it you will require:

  1. AutoGPTQ v0.2.1 (see below)
  2. pytorch 2.0.0 with CUDA 11.7 or 11.8 (eg pip install torch --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu118)
  3. einops (pip install einops)

AutoGPTQ

You should install AutoGPTQ of version v0.2.1. There are currently problems with automatic installation with pip install auto-gptq.

Therefore it is recommended to compile manually from source:

git clone https://github.com/PanQiWei/AutoGPTQ
cd AutoGPTQ
git checkout v0.2.1
pip install . --no-cache-dir # This step requires CUDA toolkit installed

The manual installation steps will require that you have the Nvidia CUDA toolkit installed.

Simple Python example code

To run this code you need to have the prerequisites installed.

You can then run this example code:

import torch
from transformers import AutoTokenizer
from auto_gptq import AutoGPTQForCausalLM

# If you've already downloaded the model, reference its location here:
quantized_model_dir = "/path/to/TheBloke_WizardLM-Uncensored-Falcon-40B-GPTQ"
# Or to download it from the hub and store it in the Hugging Face cache directory:
#quantized_model_dir = "TheBloke/WizardLM-Uncensored-Falcon-40B-GPTQ"

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(quantized_model_dir, use_fast=False)

model = AutoGPTQForCausalLM.from_quantized(quantized_model_dir, device="cuda:0", use_triton=False, use_safetensors=True, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16, trust_remote_code=True)

prompt = "What is a falcon? Can I keep one as a pet?"
prompt_template = f"{prompt}\n### Response:"

tokens = tokenizer(prompt_template, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda:0").input_ids
output = model.generate(input_ids=tokens, max_new_tokens=100, do_sample=True, temperature=0.8)
print(tokenizer.decode(output[0]))

Provided files

gptq_model-4bit--1g.safetensors

This will work with AutoGPTQ 0.2.0 and later.

It was created without group_size to reduce VRAM usage, and with desc_act (act-order) to improve inference accuracy.

  • gptq_model-4bit--1g.safetensors
    • Works only with latest AutoGPTQ CUDA, compiled from source as of commit 3cb1bf5
      • At this time it does not work with AutoGPTQ Triton, but support will hopefully be added in time.
    • Works with text-generation-webui using --trust-remote-code
    • Does not work with any version of GPTQ-for-LLaMa
    • Parameters: Groupsize = None. With act-order / desc_act.

FAQ

About trust-remote-code

Please be aware that this command line argument causes Python code provided by Falcon to be executed on your machine.

This code is required at the moment because Falcon is too new to be supported by Hugging Face transformers. At some point in the future transformers will support the model natively, and then trust_remote_code will no longer be needed.

In this repo you can see two .py files - these are the files that get executed. They are copied from the base repo at Falcon-40B-Instruct.

Thanks, and how to contribute.

Thanks to the chirper.ai team!

I've had a lot of people ask if they can contribute. I enjoy providing models and helping people, and would love to be able to spend even more time doing it, as well as expanding into new projects like fine tuning/training.

If you're able and willing to contribute it will be most gratefully received and will help me to keep providing more models, and to start work on new AI projects.

Donaters will get priority support on any and all AI/LLM/model questions and requests, access to a private Discord room, plus other benefits.

Special thanks to: Aemon Algiz.

Thank you to all my generous patrons and donaters!

And thank you again to a16z for their generous grant.

Original model card: Eric Hartford's WizardLM Uncensored Falcon 40B

This is WizardLM trained on top of tiiuae/falcon-40b, with a subset of the dataset - responses that contained alignment / moralizing were removed. The intent is to train a WizardLM that doesn't have alignment built-in, so that alignment (of any sort) can be added separately with for example with a RLHF LoRA.

Shout out to the open source AI/ML community, and everyone who helped me out.

Note:
An uncensored model has no guardrails.
You are responsible for anything you do with the model, just as you are responsible for anything you do with any dangerous object such as a knife, gun, lighter, or car. Publishing anything this model generates is the same as publishing it yourself. You are responsible for the content you publish, and you cannot blame the model any more than you can blame the knife, gun, lighter, or car for what you do with it.

Prompt format is WizardLM.

What is a falcon?  Can I keep one as a pet?

Thank you chirper.ai for sponsoring some of my compute!

Catalog is the map. Apps are the tools.

Run models on your own machine, not in the cloud.

Every model page has an "Open in Abliteration" button that hands the model directly to the first-party desktop client, at the quantization your rig can actually run. No API keys, no subscription, no prompt leakage.
