Model Architecture

The model is a decoder-only transformer similar to the LLaMA (Touvron et al., 2023) architecture with the following modifications:

Parameters	Hidden Size	Layers	Heads	Sequence Length
2,796,431,360	2560	32	32	16384

Position Embeddings: Rotary Position Embeddings (Su et al., 2021) applied to the first 25% of head embedding dimensions for improved throughput following Black et al. (2022).
Tokenizer: We use a modified version of the GPTNeoX Tokenizer.NeoX. We add special tokens to train for Fill in the Middle (FIM) capabilities like <FIM_PREFIX> and <FIM_SUFFIX> along with other special tokens.

Training

Training Dataset

The dataset is comprised of a filtered mixture of open-source large-scale datasets available on the HuggingFace Hub: Falcon RefinedWeb extract (Penedo et al., 2023), along with CommitPackFT and Github Issues (BigCode., 2023), and StarCoder (Li et al., 2023). We further supplement our training with data from mathematical domains (Azerbayev, Zhangir, et al., 2023 and, Yu, Longhui, et al., 2023).

Top 18 programming languages trained on:

C
CPP
Java
JavaScript
CSS
Go
HTML
Ruby
Rust
Markdown
Shell
Php
Sql
R
Typescript
Python
Jupyter-Clean
RestructuredText

Training Procedure

The model is pre-trained on the aforementioned datasets in bfloat16 precision, optimized with AdamW.

Training Infrastructure

Hardware: stable-code-3b was trained on the Stability AI cluster across 256 NVIDIA A100 40GB GPUs (AWS P4d instances).
Software: We use a fork of gpt-neox (EleutherAI, 2021), train under 2D parallelism (Data and Tensor Parallel) with ZeRO-1 (Rajbhandari et al., 2019), and rely on flash-attention as well as SwiGLU and Rotary Embedding kernels from FlashAttention-2 (Dao et al., 2023)

Use and Limitations

Intended Use

The model is intended to be used as a foundational base model for application-specific fine-tuning. Developers must evaluate and fine-tune the model for safe performance in downstream applications. For commercial use, please refer to https://stability.ai/license.

Limitations and Bias

As a base model, this model may exhibit unreliable, unsafe, or other undesirable behaviors that must be corrected through evaluation and fine-tuning prior to deployment. The pre-training dataset may have contained offensive or inappropriate content, even after applying data cleansing filters, which can be reflected in the model-generated text. We recommend that users exercise caution when using these models in production systems. Do not use the models if they are unsuitable for your application, or for any applications that may cause deliberate or unintentional harm to others.
