Imran1/Llama-3.1-Tulu-3-70B-Fp8

Overview

Imran1/Llama-3.1-Tulu-3-70B-Fp8 is an optimized version of the base model allenai/Llama-3.1-Tulu-3-70B, utilizing FP8 (8-bit floating point) precision. This reduces memory usage and increases computational efficiency, making it ideal for large-scale inference tasks without sacrificing the model's performance.

This model is well-suited for applications such as:

• Conversational AI and chatbots
• Instruction-based tasks
• Text generation, summarization,Math, Coding, Translations and dialogue completion

Key Features

• 70 billion parameters for powerful language generation and understanding capabilities.
• FP8 precision for reduced memory consumption and faster inference.
• Supports tensor parallelism for distributed computing environments.

Usage Instructions

1. Running the Model with vLLM

You can serve the model using vLLM with tensor parallelism enabled. Below is an example command for running the model:

vllm serve Imran1/Llama-3.1-Tulu-3-70B-Fp8 --api-key token-abc123 --tensor-parallel-size 2

2. Interacting with the Model via Python (OpenAI API)

Here’s an example of how to interact with the model using the OpenAI API interface:

from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI(
    base_url="http://localhost:8000/v1",  # Your vLLM server URL
    api_key="token-abc123",  # Replace with your API key
)

# Example chat completion request
completion = client.chat.completions.create(
    model="Imran1/Llama-3.1-Tulu-3-70B-Fp8",
    messages=[
        {"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"},
    ],
    max_tokens=500,
    stream=True
)

print(completion)

Performance and Efficiency

• Memory Efficiency: FP8 precision significantly reduces memory requirements, allowing for larger batch sizes and faster processing times.
• Speed: The FP8 version provides faster inference, making it highly suitable for real-time applications.

Limitations

• Precision Trade-offs: While FP8 enhances speed and memory usage, tasks that require high precision (e.g., numerical calculations) may see a slight performance degradation compared to FP16/FP32 versions.
