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 currently unavoidable, but is being looked at.
This 4bit model requires at least 35GB VRAM to load. It can be used on 40GB or 48GB cards, but not less.
Please be aware that you should currently expect around 0.7 tokens/s on 40B Falcon GPTQ.
AutoGPTQ
AutoGPTQ is required: pip install auto-gptq
AutoGPTQ provides pre-compiled wheels for Windows and Linux, with CUDA toolkit 11.7 or 11.8.
If you are running CUDA toolkit 12.x, you will need to compile your own by following these instructions:
git clone https://github.com/PanQiWei/AutoGPTQ
cd AutoGPTQ
pip install .
These manual steps will require that you have the Nvidia CUDA toolkit installed.
text-generation-webui
There is provisional AutoGPTQ support in text-generation-webui.
This requires text-generation-webui as of commit 204731952ae59d79ea3805a425c73dd171d943c3.
So please first update text-genration-webui to the latest version.
How to download and use this model in text-generation-webui
Launch text-generation-webui with the following command-line arguments: --autogptq --trust-remote-code
Click the Model tab.
Under Download custom model or LoRA, enter TheBloke/falcon-40B-instruct-GPTQ.
Click Download.
Wait until it says it's finished downloading.
Click the Refresh icon next to Model in the top left.
In the Model drop-down: choose the model you just downloaded, falcon-40B-instruct-GPTQ.
Once it says it's loaded, click the Text Generation tab and enter a prompt!
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-7B-Instruct.
Simple Python example code
To run this code you need to install AutoGPTQ and einops:
pip install auto-gptq
pip install einops
You can then run this example code:
python
1import torch
2from transformers import AutoTokenizer
3from auto_gptq import AutoGPTQForCausalLM
45# Download the model from HF and store it locally, then reference its location here:6quantized_model_dir ="/path/to/falcon40b-instruct-GPTQ"78from transformers import AutoTokenizer

Provided files
gptq_model-4bit--1g.safetensors
This will work with AutoGPTQ as of commit 3cb1bf5 (3cb1bf5a6d43a06dc34c6442287965d1838303d3)
It was created without groupsize to reduce VRAM requirements, and with desc_act (act-order) to improve inference quality.
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 --autogptq --trust_remote_code
At this time it does NOT work with one-click-installers
Does not work with any version of GPTQ-for-LLaMa
Parameters: Groupsize = None. Act order (desc_act)

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'd be most gratefully received and will help me to keep providing models, and work on new AI projects.
Donaters will get priority support on any and all AI/LLM/model questions, plus other benefits.

✨ Original model card: Falcon-40B-Instruct
✨ Falcon-40B-Instruct
Falcon-40B-Instruct is a 40B parameters causal decoder-only model built by TII based on Falcon-40B and finetuned on a mixture of Baize. It is made available under the TII Falcon LLM License.
Paper coming soon 😊.
Why use Falcon-40B-Instruct?
You are looking for a ready-to-use chat/instruct model based on Falcon-40B.
💬 This is an instruct model, which may not be ideal for further finetuning. If you are interested in building your own instruct/chat model, we recommend starting from Falcon-40B.
💸 Looking for a smaller, less expensive model?Falcon-7B-Instruct is Falcon-40B-Instruct's small brother!

Falcon-40B-Instruct has been finetuned on a chat dataset.
Out-of-Scope Use
Production use without adequate assessment of risks and mitigation; any use cases which may be considered irresponsible or harmful.
Bias, Risks, and Limitations
Falcon-40B-Instruct is mostly trained on English data, and will not generalize appropriately to other languages. Furthermore, as it is trained on a large-scale corpora representative of the web, it will carry the stereotypes and biases commonly encountered online.
Recommendations
We recommend users of Falcon-40B-Instruct to develop guardrails and to take appropriate precautions for any production use.

Training Details
Training Data
Falcon-40B-Instruct was finetuned on a 150M tokens from Bai ze mixed with 5% of RefinedWeb data.
The data was tokenized with the Falcon-7B/40B tokenizer.
Decoder-block: parallel attention/MLP with a single layer norm.
For multiquery, we are using an internal variant which uses independent key and values per tensor parallel degree.
