MPT

This model was released on 2023-05-05 and added to Hugging Face Transformers on 2023-07-25.

PyTorch

The MPT model was proposed by the MosaicML team and released with multiple sizes and finetuned variants. The MPT models are a series of open source and commercially usable LLMs pre-trained on 1T tokens.

MPT models are GPT-style decoder-only transformers with several improvements: performance-optimized layer implementations, architecture changes that provide greater training stability, and the elimination of context length limits by replacing positional embeddings with ALiBi.

  • MPT base: MPT base pre-trained models on next token prediction
  • MPT instruct: MPT base models fine-tuned on instruction based tasks
  • MPT storywriter: MPT base models fine-tuned for 2500 steps on 65k-token excerpts of fiction books contained in the books3 corpus, this enables the model to handle very long sequences

The original code is available at the llm-foundry repository.

Read more about it in the release blogpost

  • Learn more about some techniques behind training of the model in this section of llm-foundry repository
  • If you want to use the advanced version of the model (triton kernels, direct flash attention integration), you can still use the original model implementation by adding trust_remote_code=True when calling from_pretrained.
