OpenChatKit

OpenChatKit provides a powerful, open-source base to create both specialized and general purpose chatbots for various applications. The kit includes an instruction-tuned 20 billion parameter language model, a 6 billion parameter moderation model, and an extensible retrieval system for including up-to-date responses from custom repositories. It was trained on the OIG-43M training dataset, which was a collaboration between Together, LAION, and Ontocord.ai. Much more than a model release, this is the beginning of an open source project. We are releasing a set of tools and processes for ongoing improvement with community contributions.

In this repo, you'll find code for:

  • Training an OpenChatKit model
  • Testing inference using the model
  • Augmenting the model with additional context from a retrieval index

Requirements

Before you begin, you need to install PyTorch and other dependencies.

  1. Install Miniconda from their website.

  2. Install Git LFS from their website.

  3. Install the git lfs hooks.

git lfs install
  1. Install mamba in the base environment so it's available in all environments.
conda install mamba -n base -c conda-forge
  1. Create an environment called OpenChatKit using the environment.yml file at the root of this repo.
mamba env create -f environment.yml 
  1. Activate the new conda environment.
conda activate OpenChatKit

Pre-trained Weights

GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B is a 20B-parameter variant of GPT-NeoX, fine-tuned on conversational datasets. We are releasing pre-trained weights for this model as togethercomputer/GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B on Huggingface.

More details can be found on the model card for GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B on Huggingface.

Datasets

The chat model was trained on the OIG dataset built by LAION, Together, and Ontocord.ai. To download the dataset from Huggingface run the command below from the root of the repo.

python data/OIG/prepare.py

Once the command completes, the data will be in the data/OIG/files directory.

Data Contributions

You can help make this chat model better by contributing data! See the OpenDataHub repo for more details.

Pretrained Base Model

As mentioned above, the chat model is a fine-tuned variant of GPT-NeoX-20B from Eleuther AI. To download GPT-NeoX-20B and prepare it for fine tuning, run this command from the root of the repo.

python pretrained/GPT-NeoX-20B/prepare.py

The weights for this model will be in the pretrained/GPT-NeoX-20B/EleutherAI_gpt-neox-20b.

Training and Finetuning

(Optional) 8bit Adam

To use 8bit-adam during training, install the bitsandbytes package.

pip install bitsandbytes # optional, to use 8bit-adam

Train GPT-NeoX-Chat-Base-20B

The training/finetune_GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B.sh script configures and runs the training loop. After downloading the dataset and the base model, run:

bash training/finetune_GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B.sh

The script launches 8 processes with a pipeline-parallel degree of 8 and a data-parallel degree of 1.

As the training loop runs, checkpoints are saved to the model_ckpts directory at the root of the repo.

Please see the training README for more details about customizing the training run.

Converting Weights to Huggingface Format

Before you can use this model to perform inference, it must be converted to the Huggingface format. Run this command from the root of the repo to do so.

mkdir huggingface_models \ 
  && python tools/convert_to_hf_gptneox.py \ 
       --ckpt-path model_ckpts/GPT-Neo-XT-Chat-Base-20B/checkpoint_100  \
       --save-path huggingface_models/GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B  \
       --n-stages 8  \
       --n-layer-per-stage 6

Make sure to replace model_ckpts/GPT-Neo-XT-Chat-Base-20B/checkpoint_100 with the latest checkpoint in the model_ckpts/GPT-Neo-XT-Chat-Base-20B directory.

Inference

To help you test the model, we provide a simple test command line test harness to interact with the bot.

python inference/bot.py

By default the script will load the model named GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B model under the huggingface_models directory, but you can override that behavior by specifying --model.

For example, if you want to load the base model from our Huggingface, repo, you can run the following command which downloads the weights from HuggingFace.

python inference/bot.py --model togethercomputer/GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B

Once the model has loaded, enter text at the prompt and the model will reply.

$ python inference/bot.py 
Loading /home/csris/src/github.com/togethercomputer/OpenChatKit/inference/../huggingface_models/GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B to cuda:1...
Welcome to OpenChatKit shell.   Type /help or /? to list commands.

>>> Hello.

Hello human.

>>> 

Commands are prefixed with a /, and the /quit command exits.

Monitoring

By default, the training script simply prints the loss as training proceeds, but it can also output metrics to a file using loguru or report them to Weights & Biases.

Loguru

Add the flag --train-log-backend loguru to your training script to log to ./logs/file_{time}.log

Weights & Biases

To use Weights & Biases, first login with your Weights & Biases token.

wandb login

And set --train-log-backend wandb in the training script to enable logging to Weights & Biases.

Experimental: Retrieval-Augmented Models

Note: Retrieval is still experimental.

The code in /retrieval implements a python package for querying a Faiss index of Wikipedia. The following steps explain how to use this index to augment queries in the test harness with context from the retriever.

  1. Download the Wikipedia index.
python data/wikipedia-3sentence-level-retrieval-index/prepare.py
  1. Run the bot with the --retrieval flag.
python inference/bot.py --retrieval

After starting, the bot will load both the chat model and the retrieval index, which takes a long time. Once the model and the index are loaded, all queries will be augmented with extra context.

$ python inference/bot.py --retrieval
Loading /OpenChatKit/inference/../huggingface_models/GPT-NeoXT-Chat-Base-20B to cuda:0...
