Advanced Usage

Torch compile

Torch compile is a method for speeding-up the inference of PyTorch modules. The Silma model can be run up to 6x faster by leveraging torch compile.

Note that two warm-up steps are required before the full inference speed is realised:

import os
os.environ["TOKENIZERS_PARALLELISM"] = "false"

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, Gemma2ForCausalLM
from transformers.cache_utils import HybridCache
import torch

torch.set_float32_matmul_precision("high")

# load the model + tokenizer
model_id = "silma-ai/SILMA-9B-Instruct-v1.0"
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = Gemma2ForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_id, torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16)
model.to("cuda")

# apply the torch compile transformation
model.forward = torch.compile(model.forward, mode="reduce-overhead", fullgraph=True)

# pre-process inputs

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "أنت مساعد ذكي للإجابة عن أسئلة المستخدمين."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "من الرئيس الذي تولى المنصب في أمريكا بعد دونالد ترامب؟"},
]
model_inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, return_tensors="pt", return_dict=True).to("cuda")

input_text = "من الرئيس الذي تولى المنصب في أمريكا بعد دونالد ترامب؟"
model_inputs = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
prompt_length = model_inputs.input_ids.shape[1]

# set-up k/v cache
past_key_values = HybridCache(
    config=model.config,
    max_batch_size=1,
    max_cache_len=model.config.max_position_embeddings,
    device=model.device,
    dtype=model.dtype
)

# enable passing kv cache to generate
model._supports_cache_class = True
model.generation_config.cache_implementation = None

# two warm-up steps
for idx in range(2):
    outputs = model.generate(**model_inputs, past_key_values=past_key_values, do_sample=True, temperature=1.0, max_new_tokens=128)
    past_key_values.reset()

# fast run
outputs = model.generate(**model_inputs, past_key_values=past_key_values, do_sample=True, temperature=1.0, max_new_tokens=128)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0], skip_special_tokens=True))

Chat Template

The instruction-tuned models use a chat template that must be adhered to for conversational use. The easiest way to apply it is using the tokenizer's built-in chat template, as shown in the following snippet.

Let's load the model and apply the chat template to a conversation. In this example, we'll start with a single user interaction:

from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
import transformers
import torch

model_id = "silma-ai/SILMA-9B-Instruct-v1.0"
dtype = torch.bfloat16

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_id,
    device_map="cuda",
    torch_dtype=dtype,)

chat = [
    { "role": "user", "content": "ما اشهر اطارات العمل في البايثون لبناء نماذج الذكاء الاصطناعي؟" },
]
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(chat, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)

At this point, the prompt contains the following text:

<bos><start_of_turn>user
ما اشهر اطارات العمل في البايثون لبناء نماذج الذكاء الاصطناعي؟<end_of_turn>
<start_of_turn>model

As you can see, each turn is preceded by a <start_of_turn> delimiter and then the role of the entity (either user, for content supplied by the user, or model for LLM responses). Turns finish with the <end_of_turn> token.

You can follow this format to build the prompt manually, if you need to do it without the tokenizer's chat template.

After the prompt is ready, generation can be performed like this:

inputs = tokenizer.encode(prompt, add_special_tokens=False, return_tensors="pt")
outputs = model.generate(input_ids=inputs.to(model.device), max_new_tokens=150)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))

Inputs and outputs

  • Input: Text string, such as a question, a prompt, or a document to be summarized.
  • Output: Generated Arabic or English text in response to the input, such as an answer to a question, or a summary of a document.

GPU Requirements

The following are the minimum/recommended GPU requirements for running inference:

  • Recommended

    • At least one GPU with a minimum of 48 GB of GPU memory
    • Examples: Nvidia A40, L40, RTX A6000

  • Minimum

    • At least one GPU with 16-24 GB of GPU memory
    • Examples: Nvidia RTX 4090, RTX 4000, L4
    • Assuming that the model is loaded in either 8-bit or 4-bit Quantization mode

Usage and Limitations

These models have certain limitations that users should be aware of.

Intended Usage

Open Large Language Models (LLMs) have a wide range of applications across various industries and domains. The following list of potential uses is not comprehensive. The purpose of this list is to provide contextual information about the possible use-cases that the model creators considered as part of model training and development.

  • Content Creation and Communication
    • Text Generation: These models can be used to generate creative text formats such as poems, scripts, code, marketing copy, and email drafts.
    • Chatbots and Conversational AI: Power conversational interfaces for customer service, virtual assistants, or interactive applications.
    • Text Summarization: Generate concise summaries of a text corpus, research papers, or reports.
  • Research and Education
    • Natural Language Processing (NLP) Research: These models can serve as a foundation for researchers to experiment with NLP techniques, develop algorithms, and contribute to the advancement of the field.
    • Language Learning Tools: Support interactive language learning experiences, aiding in grammar correction or providing writing practice.
    • Knowledge Exploration: Assist researchers in exploring large bodies of text by generating summaries or answering questions about specific topics.

Limitations

  • Training Data
    • The quality and diversity of the training data significantly influence the model's capabilities. Biases or gaps in the training data can lead to limitations in the model's responses.
    • The scope of the training dataset determines the subject areas the model can handle effectively.
  • Context and Task Complexity
    • LLMs are better at tasks that can be framed with clear prompts and instructions. Open-ended or highly complex tasks might be challenging.
    • A model's performance can be influenced by the amount of context provided (longer context generally leads to better outputs, up to a certain point).
  • Language Ambiguity and Nuance
    • Natural language is inherently complex. LLMs might struggle to grasp subtle nuances, sarcasm, or figurative language.
  • Factual Accuracy
    • LLMs generate responses based on information they learned from their training datasets, but they are not knowledge bases. They may generate incorrect or outdated factual statements.
  • Common Sense
    • LLMs rely on statistical patterns in language. They might lack the ability to apply common sense reasoning in certain situations.

Ethical Considerations and Risks

The development of large language models (LLMs) raises several ethical concerns. In creating an open model, we have carefully considered the following:

  • Bias and Fairness
    • LLMs trained on large-scale, real-world text data can reflect socio-cultural biases embedded in the training material.
  • Misinformation and Misuse
    • LLMs can be misused to generate text that is false, misleading, or harmful.
    • Guidelines are provided for responsible use with the model, see the [Responsible Generative AI Toolkit][rai-toolkit].
  • Transparency and Accountability:
    • This model card summarizes details on the models' architecture, capabilities, limitations, and evaluation processes.
    • A responsibly developed open model offers the opportunity to share innovation by making LLM technology accessible to developers and researchers across the AI ecosystem.

Risks identified and mitigations:

  • Perpetuation of biases: It's encouraged to perform continuous monitoring (using evaluation metrics, human review) and the exploration of de-biasing techniques during model training, fine-tuning, and other use cases.
  • Generation of harmful content: Mechanisms and guidelines for content safety are essential. Developers are encouraged to exercise caution and implement appropriate content safety safeguards based on their specific product policies and application use cases.
  • Privacy violations: Models were trained on data filtered for removal of PII (Personally Identifiable Information). Developers are encouraged to adhere to privacy regulations with privacy-preserving techniques.
