BitNet-SmolLM-135M (Technically 66.1M, Just 264 Mb in size)

I'm confused how this is generating outputs being this smol 🤯!

Model Summary

SmolLM is a series of state-of-the-art small language models available in three sizes: 135M, 360M, and 1.7B parameters. These models are built on Cosmo-Corpus, a meticulously curated high-quality training dataset. Cosmo-Corpus includes Cosmopedia v2 (28B tokens of synthetic textbooks and stories generated by Mixtral), Python-Edu (4B tokens of educational Python samples from The Stack), and FineWeb-Edu (220B tokens of deduplicated educational web samples from FineWeb). SmolLM models have shown promising results when compared to other models in their size categories across various benchmarks testing common sense reasoning and world knowledge. For detailed information on training, benchmarks and performance, please refer to our full blog post.

This is the SmolLM-135M

Generation

pip install transformers

Running the model on CPU/GPU/multi GPU

Using full precision

# pip install transformers
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
checkpoint = "HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM-135M"
device = "cuda" # for GPU usage or "cpu" for CPU usage
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(checkpoint)
# for multiple GPUs install accelerate and do `model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(checkpoint, device_map="auto")`
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(checkpoint).to(device)
inputs = tokenizer.encode("def print_hello_world():", return_tensors="pt").to(device)
outputs = model.generate(inputs)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))

>>> print(f"Memory footprint: {model.get_memory_footprint() / 1e6:.2f} MB")
Memory footprint: 12624.81 MB

Using torch.bfloat16

# pip install accelerate
import torch
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
checkpoint = "HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM-135M"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(checkpoint)
# for fp16 use `torch_dtype=torch.float16` instead
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(checkpoint, device_map="auto", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16)
inputs = tokenizer.encode("def print_hello_world():", return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
outputs = model.generate(inputs)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))

>>> print(f"Memory footprint: {model.get_memory_footprint() / 1e6:.2f} MB")
Memory footprint: 269.03 MB

Quantized Version 2Bit (BitNet)

model = "ighoshsubho/Bitnet-SmolLM-135M"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model)

    y = y / scale
    return y

convert_to_bitnet(model, copy_weights=True)
model.to(device="cuda:0")

prompt = "Lovely works as a Senior Software Engineer at Axian Consulting. She has Master’s degree in Software Engineering. She is a full stack developer with 10 years of commercial experience working on web-based applications development, having wide knowledge on end"

Limitations

While SmolLM models have been trained on a diverse dataset including educational content and synthetic texts, they have limitations. The models primarily understand and generate content in English. They can produce text on a variety of topics, but the generated content may not always be factually accurate, logically consistent, or free from biases present in the training data. These models should be used as assistive tools rather than definitive sources of information. Users should always verify important information and critically evaluate any generated content. For a more comprehensive discussion of the models' capabilities and limitations, please refer to our full blog post..

This repository contains a converted version of our latest trained model. We've noticed a small performance difference between this converted checkpoint (transformers) and the original (nanotron). We're currently working to resolve this issue.
