Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:
{prompt}

### Response:

Licensing

The creator of the source model has listed its license as ['mit'], and this quantization has therefore used that same license.

As this model is based on Llama 2, it is also subject to the Meta Llama 2 license terms, and the license files for that are additionally included. It should therefore be considered as being claimed to be licensed under both licenses. I contacted Hugging Face for clarification on dual licensing but they do not yet have an official position. Should this change, or should Meta provide any feedback on this situation, I will update this section accordingly.

In the meantime, any questions regarding licensing, and in particular how these two licenses might interact, should be directed to the original model repository: NousResearch's Nous Hermes Llama 2 7B.

Provided files and GPTQ parameters

Multiple quantisation parameters are provided, to allow you to choose the best one for your hardware and requirements.

Each separate quant is in a different branch. See below for instructions on fetching from different branches.

All recent GPTQ files are made with AutoGPTQ, and all files in non-main branches are made with AutoGPTQ. Files in the main branch which were uploaded before August 2023 were made with GPTQ-for-LLaMa.

Explanation of GPTQ parameters

Bits: The bit size of the quantised model.
GS: GPTQ group size. Higher numbers use less VRAM, but have lower quantisation accuracy. "None" is the lowest possible value.
Act Order: True or False. Also known as desc_act. True results in better quantisation accuracy. Some GPTQ clients have had issues with models that use Act Order plus Group Size, but this is generally resolved now.
Damp %: A GPTQ parameter that affects how samples are processed for quantisation. 0.01 is default, but 0.1 results in slightly better accuracy.
GPTQ dataset: The dataset used for quantisation. Using a dataset more appropriate to the model's training can improve quantisation accuracy. Note that the GPTQ dataset is not the same as the dataset used to train the model - please refer to the original model repo for details of the training dataset(s).
Sequence Length: The length of the dataset sequences used for quantisation. Ideally this is the same as the model sequence length. For some very long sequence models (16+K), a lower sequence length may have to be used. Note that a lower sequence length does not limit the sequence length of the quantised model. It only impacts the quantisation accuracy on longer inference sequences.
ExLlama Compatibility: Whether this file can be loaded with ExLlama, which currently only supports Llama models in 4-bit.

main	4	128	No	0.1	wikitext	4096	3.90 GB	Yes	4-bit, without Act Order and group size 128g.
gptq-4bit-32g-actorder_True	4	32	Yes	0.1	wikitext	4096	4.28 GB	Yes	4-bit, with Act Order and group size 32g. Gives highest possible inference quality, with maximum VRAM usage.
gptq-4bit-64g-actorder_True	4	64	Yes	0.1	wikitext	4096	4.02 GB	Yes	4-bit, with Act Order and group size 64g. Uses less VRAM than 32g, but with slightly lower accuracy.
gptq-4bit-128g-actorder_True	4	128	Yes	0.1	wikitext	4096	3.90 GB	Yes	4-bit, with Act Order and group size 128g. Uses even less VRAM than 64g, but with slightly lower accuracy.
gptq-8bit--1g-actorder_True	8	None	Yes	0.1	wikitext	4096	7.01 GB	No	8-bit, with Act Order. No group size, to lower VRAM requirements.
gptq-8bit-128g-actorder_False	8	128	No	0.1	wikitext	4096	7.16 GB	No	8-bit, with group size 128g for higher inference quality and without Act Order to improve AutoGPTQ speed.
gptq-8bit-128g-actorder_True	8	128	Yes	0.1	wikitext	4096	7.16 GB	No	8-bit, with group size 128g for higher inference quality and with Act Order for even higher accuracy.
gptq-8bit-64g-actorder_True	8	64	Yes	0.1	wikitext	4096	7.31 GB	No	8-bit, with group size 64g and Act Order for even higher inference quality. Poor AutoGPTQ CUDA speed.

shell

pip3 uninstall -y transformers
pip3 install git+https://github.com/huggingface/transformers.git

You can then use the following code

python

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, pipeline

model_name_or_path = "TheBloke/Nous-Hermes-Llama-2-7B-GPTQ"
# To use a different branch, change revision
# For example: revision="main"
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path,
                                             device_map="auto",
                                             trust_remote_code=False,
                                             revision="main")

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name_or_path, use_fast=True)

Model Card: Nous-Hermes-Llama2-7b

Compute provided by our project sponsor Redmond AI, thank you! Follow RedmondAI on Twitter @RedmondAI.

Model Description

Nous-Hermes-Llama2-7b is a state-of-the-art language model fine-tuned on over 300,000 instructions. This model was fine-tuned by Nous Research, with Teknium leading the fine tuning process and dataset curation, Redmond AI sponsoring the compute, and several other contributors.

This Hermes model uses the exact same dataset as Hermes on Llama-1. This is to ensure consistency between the old Hermes and new, for anyone who wanted to keep Hermes as similar to the old one, just more capable.

This model stands out for its long responses, lower hallucination rate, and absence of OpenAI censorship mechanisms. The fine-tuning process was performed with a 4096 sequence length on an 8x a100 80GB DGX machine.

Model Training

The model was trained almost entirely on synthetic GPT-4 outputs. Curating high quality GPT-4 datasets enables incredibly high quality in knowledge, task completion, and style.

This includes data from diverse sources such as GPTeacher, the general, roleplay v1&2, code instruct datasets, Nous Instruct & PDACTL (unpublished), and several others, detailed further below

Collaborators

The model fine-tuning and the datasets were a collaboration of efforts and resources between Teknium, Karan4D, Emozilla, Huemin Art and Redmond AI.

Special mention goes to @winglian for assisting in some of the training issues.

Huge shoutout and acknowledgement is deserved for all the dataset creators who generously share their datasets openly.

Among the contributors of datasets:

GPTeacher was made available by Teknium
Wizard LM by nlpxucan
Nous Research Instruct Dataset was provided by Karan4D and HueminArt.
GPT4-LLM and Unnatural Instructions were provided by Microsoft
Airoboros dataset by jondurbin
Camel-AI's domain expert datasets are from Camel-AI
CodeAlpaca dataset by Sahil 2801.
