This repository serves as a fork that provides a Python-based implementation of llama2.c. Designed for an extensive audience, it aims to be a straightforward "reference implementation" suitable for educational purposes.
The current llama2.c repository comprises two Python files intended for model training and one C file for inference. Our goal is to bridge the existing gap by offering a clear-cut reference implementation encapsulating all transformer logic within a concise Python file, not exceeding 500 lines of code.
Though the original Facebook/llama is written on Python, its complexity is rather high due to multiple dependencies and sophisticated optimizations implemented within. This often makes it hard to follow, particularly for those new to the field.
Please note, the current performance of our implementation is relatively slow, clocking in at approximately ~1 tok/sec. This leaves ample scope for significant performance optimizations. We welcome any contributions towards enhancing the efficiency of this project.
