This repo contains GGUF format model files for WizardLM-2-8x22B.
About GGUF
GGUF is a new format introduced by the llama.cpp team on August 21st 2023. It is a replacement for GGML, which is no longer supported by llama.cpp.
Here is an incomplete list of clients and libraries that are known to support GGUF:
llama.cpp. This is the source project for GGUF, providing both a Command Line Interface (CLI) and a server option.
text-generation-webui, Known as the most widely used web UI, this project boasts numerous features and powerful extensions, and supports GPU acceleration.
Ollama Ollama is a lightweight and extensible framework designed for building and running language models locally. It features a simple API for creating, managing, and executing models, along with a library of pre-built models for use in various applications
KoboldCpp, A comprehensive web UI offering GPU acceleration across all platforms and architectures, particularly renowned for storytelling.
GPT4All, This is a free and open source GUI that runs locally, supporting Windows, Linux, and macOS with full GPU acceleration.
LM Studio An intuitive and powerful local GUI for Windows and macOS (Silicon), featuring GPU acceleration.
LoLLMS Web UI. A notable web UI with a variety of unique features, including a comprehensive model library for easy model selection.
Faraday.dev, An attractive, user-friendly character-based chat GUI for Windows and macOS (both Silicon and Intel), also offering GPU acceleration.
llama-cpp-python, A Python library equipped with GPU acceleration, LangChain support, and an OpenAI-compatible API server.
candle, A Rust-based ML framework focusing on performance, including GPU support, and designed for ease of use.
ctransformers, A Python library featuring GPU acceleration, LangChain support, and an OpenAI-compatible AI server.
localGPT An open-source initiative enabling private conversations with documents.
Explanation of quantisation methods
Click to see details
The new methods available are:
GGML_TYPE_Q2_K - "type-1" 2-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weight. Block scales and mins are quantized with 4 bits. This ends up effectively using 2.5625 bits per weight (bpw)
GGML_TYPE_Q3_K - "type-0" 3-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 6 bits. This end up using 3.4375 bpw.
GGML_TYPE_Q4_K - "type-1" 4-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 8 blocks, each block having 32 weights. Scales and mins are quantized with 6 bits. This ends up using 4.5 bpw.
GGML_TYPE_Q5_K - "type-1" 5-bit quantization. Same super-block structure as GGML_TYPE_Q4_K resulting in 5.5 bpw
GGML_TYPE_Q6_K - "type-0" 6-bit quantization. Super-blocks with 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 8 bits. This ends up using 6.5625 bpw.
How to download GGUF files
Note for manual downloaders: You almost never want to clone the entire repo! Multiple different quantisation formats are provided, and most users only want to pick and download a single file.
The following clients/libraries will automatically download models for you, providing a list of available models to choose from:
LM Studio
LoLLMS Web UI
Faraday.dev
In text-generation-webui
Under Download Model, you can enter the model repo: LiteLLMs/WizardLM-2-8x22B-GGUF and below it, a specific filename to download, such as: Q4_0/Q4_0-00001-of-00009.gguf.
Then click Download.
On the command line, including multiple files at once
I recommend using the huggingface-hub Python library:
pip3 install huggingface-hub
Then you can download any individual model file to the current directory, at high speed, with a command like this:
Change -ngl 32 to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.
Change -c 65536 to the desired sequence length. For extended sequence models - eg 8K, 16K, 32K - the necessary RoPE scaling parameters are read from the GGUF file and set by llama.cpp automatically. Note that longer sequence lengths require much more resources, so you may need to reduce this value.
If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the -p <PROMPT> argument with -i -ins
You can use GGUF models from Python using the llama-cpp-python or ctransformers libraries. Note that at the time of writing (Nov 27th 2023), ctransformers has not been updated for some time and is not compatible with some recent models. Therefore I recommend you use llama-cpp-python.
How to load this model in Python code, using llama-cpp-python

How to use with LangChain
Here are guides on using llama-cpp-python and ctransformers with LangChain:
We introduce and opensource WizardLM-2, our next generation state-of-the-art large language models,
which have improved performance on complex chat, multilingual, reasoning and agent.
New family includes three cutting-edge models: WizardLM-2 8x22B, WizardLM-2 70B, and WizardLM-2 7B.
WizardLM-2 8x22B is our most advanced model, demonstrates highly competitive performance compared to those leading proprietary works
and consistently outperforms all the existing state-of-the-art opensource models.
WizardLM-2 70B reaches top-tier reasoning capabilities and is the first choice in the same size.
WizardLM-2 7B is the fastest and achieves comparable performance with existing 10x larger opensource leading models.
For more details of WizardLM-2 please read our release blog post and upcoming paper.
We also adopt the automatic MT-Bench evaluation framework based on GPT-4 proposed by lmsys to assess the performance of models.
The WizardLM-2 8x22B even demonstrates highly competitive performance compared to the most advanced proprietary models.
Meanwhile, WizardLM-2 7B and WizardLM-2 70B are all the top-performing models among the other leading baselines at 7B to 70B model scales.
We carefully collected a complex and challenging set consisting of real-world instructions, which includes main requirements of humanity, such as writing, coding, math, reasoning, agent, and multilingual.
We report the win:loss rate without tie:
WizardLM-2 8x22B is just slightly falling behind GPT-4-1106-preview, and significantly stronger than Command R Plus and GPT4-0314.
WizardLM-2 70B is better than GPT4-0613, Mistral-Large, and Qwen1.5-72B-Chat.
WizardLM-2 7B is comparable with Qwen1.5-32B-Chat, and surpasses Qwen1.5-14B-Chat and Starling-LM-7B-beta.
WizardLM-2 adopts the prompt format from Vicuna and supports multi-turn conversation. The prompt should be as following:
A chat between a curious user and an artificial intelligence assistant. The assistant gives helpful,
detailed, and polite answers to the user's questions. USER: Hi ASSISTANT: Hello.</s>
USER: Who are you? ASSISTANT: I am WizardLM.</s>......
