1.5-Pints

Pints.ai -- Powerful small language models in 9 days

A recipe to pre-train models in 9 days, to become comparable AI assistants to the likes of Apple OpenELM and Microsoft Phi.

This repo contains the model architecture, training scripts, and utilities of 1.5-Pints and 0.12-Pint, developed by Pints.AI. By providing access to the model's codebase and architecture, this initiative seeks to facilitate the replication, experimentation, and further open-source development of Pint.

Installation

Recommended OS

Typically just stick to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS x86-64. Debian 12 has been tested to work as well.

GOTCHA1: Dont use arm64 / aarch64. xformers does not support ARM64 processors.

GOTCHA2: We should not install system-wide CUDA using apt. It is best to constrain the CUDA installation to within the conda environment, so that different projects can use different CUDA versions.

Install conda

wget https://repo.anaconda.com/miniconda/Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh && \
sh Miniconda3-latest-Linux-x86_64.sh

Source just to be sure conda cli will be available:

source ~/.bashrc

Sometimes if you still face conda: command cannot be found, you can find the installation and source it:

Note: This path assumes you took up the default installation settings. Otherwise, find where you installed it.

source ~/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh

Clone this repo

git clone https://github.com/Pints-AI/1.5-Pints.git && \
cd 1.5-Pints

Create conda env

conda create --prefix ./.conda python=3.10 && \
conda activate ./.conda

Note: Stick to Python 3.10. 3.12 breaks a lot of things as of now (23 Feb 2024), and 3.11 has not been tested.

Install CUDA toolkit

conda install nvidia/label/cuda-12.1.1::cuda-toolkit

Install requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt && \
pip install flash-attn --no-build-isolation && \
pip install -r pretrain/requirements.txt

Note: The pip install for dropout_layer_norm can take up ~30 minutes to build depending on the machine.

Install git-lfs if you haven't

curl -s https://packagecloud.io/install/repositories/github/git-lfs/script.deb.sh | sudo bash
sudo apt-get install git-lfs

Download the pints-ai Expository Prose pretrain dataset

cd /path/to/dataset_dir
git clone https://huggingface.co/datasets/pints-ai/Expository-Prose-V1

Prepare the dataset

python -m prepare_dataset.standard_parquet \
--source_path /path/to/dataset_dir  \
--train_val_split_ratio 0.9 \
--max_cores 60 \
--destination_path /path/to/output_dir

Refer to prepare_dataset folder for the dataset preparation scripts.

max_cores is not required if you don't OOM on high core machines.

Train the model

Lightning

fabric run model \
--accelerator=cuda \
--devices=8 \
pretrain/main.py \
--data_dir data/output \
--out_dir ../1.5-pints \
--gpus 8 \
--global_batch_size 512 \
--learning_rate 4e-4 \
--micro_batch_size 8 \
--max_step 96180 \
--warmup_steps 2000 \
--weight_decay 0.1 \
--beta1 0.9 \
--beta2 0.95 \
--grad_clip 1.0  \
--min_lr 4e-5 \
--model_name 1.5-Pints-2k \
--wandb_name <run_name> \
--wandb_project <project_name> \
--tokenizer_dir tokenizer/pints

Note1: --devices and --gpus must be the same. See pretrain.py's setup arguments for all parameters that you can adjust.

Note2: Select the architecture (layers/dimensions/heads) configuration using --model_name. This must be in lit_gpt/config.py.

Note3: Select a micro_batch_size to optimize GPU memory. So far once started, it remains stable, even during validation. micro_batch_size need not be a number that batch_size is divisible by. batch_size is derived from global_batch_size / devices.

Note4: Modify TRAIN_DATA_CONFIG in pretrain/main.py to decide on the datasets used for training. Ensure that the dataset is prepared beforehand.

Wandb

If you are asked for the wandb API key, you can login and get from: https://wandb.ai/authorize

Finetune the model

cd finetune && \
pip install -r requirements.txt

Convert pretrained weights

Before you start finetuning, you need to convert the pretrain weights:

python convert/convert_pretrained_checkpoint.py --checkpoint_dir path/to/checkpoint --output_dir path/to/output
lightning run \
--accelerator=cuda \
--devices=8 \
finetune/full.py \
--checkpoint_dir <path to lit_model.pth> \
--out_dir ~/1.5-pints-2k/ep2/step-00045000/finetuned \
--model_name 1.5-Pints-2k \
--gpus 8 \
--train.save_interval 6000 \
--train.global_batch_size 512 \
--train.micro_batch_size 8 \
--train.lr_warmup_steps 1125 \
--train.epoch 5 \
--train.learning_rate 2e-5 \
--train.max_seq_length 2048 \
--train.beta1 0.9 \
--train.beta2 0.95 \
--train.weight_decay 0.1 \
--logger_name wandb \
--tokenizer_dir tokenizer/pints \
--known_data_max_seq_length 2048 \
--wandb_project <project name>

Run Direct Preference Optimization (DPO)

DPO is opted for use post-finetuning. See here for the execution process.

Evaluate the model

See here

Use the model

Convert lit models to HuggingFace models (pytorch and safetensors)

python convert_lit_to_hf.py \
--checkpoint_name lit_model.pth \
--directory ../models/1.5-pints \
--model_name 1.5-Pints-2k \
--output_config=True \
--safetensors=True \
--delete_pytorch_model=True

Note: We found better success using the safetensors file. Therefore it's recommended to use it instead of pytorch_model.bin.

Use it with huggingface

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("/model/path")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("/model/path")

prompt = '''<|im_start|>user
Do not go gentle into that good night.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
'''

tokenized_input = tokenizer.encode(prompt)
tokenized_output = model.generate(tokenized_input)
print(tokenizer.decode(tokenized_output))

Code Testing

This codebase comes with tests. If you need to make modifications, you can run the tests to ensure your modifications did not disrupt the existing code.

Install test requirements:

pip install -r requirements.test.txt

Run pytest:

python -m pytest --verbose
