The GGML format has now been superseded by GGUF. As of August 21st 2023, llama.cpp no longer supports GGML models. Third party clients and libraries are expected to still support it for a time, but many may also drop support.

Please use the GGUF models instead.

About GGML

GGML files are for CPU + GPU inference using llama.cpp and libraries and UIs which support this format, such as:

text-generation-webui, the most popular web UI. Supports NVidia CUDA GPU acceleration.
KoboldCpp, a powerful GGML web UI with GPU acceleration on all platforms (CUDA and OpenCL). Especially good for story telling.
LM Studio, a fully featured local GUI with GPU acceleration on both Windows (NVidia and AMD), and macOS.
LoLLMS Web UI, a great web UI with CUDA GPU acceleration via the c_transformers backend.
ctransformers, a Python library with GPU accel, LangChain support, and OpenAI-compatible AI server.
llama-cpp-python, a Python library with GPU accel, LangChain support, and OpenAI-compatible API server.

Compatibility

These quantised GGML files are compatible with llama.cpp between June 6th (commit 2d43387) and August 21st 2023.

For support with latest llama.cpp, please use GGUF files instead.

The final llama.cpp commit with support for GGML was: dadbed99e65252d79f81101a392d0d6497b86caa

As of August 23rd 2023 they are still compatible with all UIs, libraries and utilities which use GGML. This may change in the future.

Explanation of the new k-quant 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
GGML_TYPE_Q8_K - "type-0" 8-bit quantization. Only used for quantizing intermediate results. The difference to the existing Q8_0 is that the block size is 256. All 2-6 bit dot products are implemented for this quantization type.

Note: the above RAM figures assume no GPU offloading. If layers are offloaded to the GPU, this will reduce RAM usage and use VRAM instead.

How to run in `llama.cpp`

Make sure you are using llama.cpp from commit dadbed99e65252d79f81101a392d0d6497b86caa or earlier.

For compatibility with latest llama.cpp, please use GGUF files instead.

./main -t 10 -ngl 32 -m stablebeluga-7b.ggmlv3.q4_K_M.bin --color -c 2048 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "### System:\n{system_message}\n\n### User:\n{prompt}\n\n### Assistant:"

Change -t 10 to the number of physical CPU cores you have. For example if your system has 8 cores/16 threads, use -t 8.

Change -ngl 32 to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.

Change -c 2048 to the desired sequence length for this model. For example, -c 4096 for a Llama 2 model. For models that use RoPE, add --rope-freq-base 10000 --rope-freq-scale 0.5 for doubled context, or --rope-freq-base 10000 --rope-freq-scale 0.25 for 4x context.

If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the -p <PROMPT> argument with -i -ins

For other parameters and how to use them, please refer to the llama.cpp documentation

python

import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer, pipeline

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("stabilityai/StableBeluga-7B", use_fast=False)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("stabilityai/StableBeluga-7B", torch_dtype=torch.float16, low_cpu_mem_usage=True, device_map="auto")
system_prompt = "### System:\nYou are StableBeluga, an AI that follows instructions extremely well. Help as much as you can. Remember, be safe, and don't do anything illegal.\n\n"

message = "Write me a poem please"
prompt = f"{system_prompt}### User: {message}\n\n### Assistant:\n"
inputs = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
output = model.generate(**inputs, do_sample=True, top_p=0.95, top_k=0, max_new_tokens=256)

print(tokenizer.decode(output[0], skip_special_tokens=True))

Stable Beluga 7B should be used with this prompt format:

Model Details

Developed by: Stability AI
Model type: Stable Beluga 7B is an auto-regressive language model fine-tuned on Llama2 7B.
Language(s): English
Library: HuggingFace Transformers
License: Fine-tuned checkpoints (Stable Beluga 7B) is licensed under the STABLE BELUGA NON-COMMERCIAL COMMUNITY LICENSE AGREEMENT
Contact: For questions and comments about the model, please email lm@stability.ai

Training Dataset

Stable Beluga 7B is trained on our internal Orca-style dataset

Training Procedure

Models are learned via supervised fine-tuning on the aforementioned datasets, trained in mixed-precision (BF16), and optimized with AdamW. We outline the following hyperparameters:

Dataset	Batch Size	Learning Rate	Learning Rate Decay	Warm-up	Weight Decay	Betas
Orca pt1 packed	256	3e-5	Cosine to 3e-6	100	1e-6	(0.9, 0.95)
Orca pt2 unpacked	512	3e-5	Cosine to 3e-6	100	1e-6	(0.9, 0.95)

Ethical Considerations and Limitations

Beluga is a new technology that carries risks with use. Testing conducted to date has been in English, and has not covered, nor could it cover all scenarios. For these reasons, as with all LLMs, Beluga's potential outputs cannot be predicted in advance, and the model may in some instances produce inaccurate, biased or other objectionable responses to user prompts. Therefore, before deploying any applications of Beluga, developers should perform safety testing and tuning tailored to their specific applications of the model.
