OpenChat is a series of open-source language models based on supervised fine-tuning (SFT). We release two versions (v1 and v2) models. Specifically, v1 uses only ~6K GPT-4 conversations directly filtered from the ~90K ShareGPT conversations, while v2 adopts cleaned ~80k ShareGPT conversations with a conditioning strategy and weighted loss. Despite our methods being simple, OpenChat has demonstrated remarkable performance. Our final vision is to develop a high-performance, open-source and commercially available large language model, and we are still moving on.

We are also trying to use extensive standard benchmarks to evaluate the performance of OpenChat, such as MMLU, we will release the evaluation results as soon as possible!
To use OpenChat, you need to have CUDA and PyTorch installed. You can clone this repository and install the dependencies via pip:
git clone git@github.com:imoneoi/openchat.gitpip install --no-build-isolation flash-attn
pip install -r requirements.txtNote: FlashAttention may have compatibility issues. If you encounter these problems, you can try to create a new "conda" environment and follow the instructions below.
conda install python
conda install cudatoolkit-dev -c conda-forge
pip3 install torch torchvision torchaudio
pip install packaging
pip install --no-build-isolation flash-attn
pip install -r requirements.txt
We provide full weights of all models as Hugging Face repos. You can use the following commands to start a local API server at http://localhost:18888. Please note that models should be used under their foundation models' license.
The server is based on vLLM, to run on multiple GPUs with small VRAM, you can enable tensor parallel, e.g. --tensor-parallel-size 2

The server is compatible with the ChatCompletions protocol (please note that some functionalities are not fully supported) and the openai package. You can specify the server of openai package by setting:
openai.api_base = "http://localhost:18888/v1"We also provide a Web UI for a better user experience, please refer to the following section for details.
You can interact with the model using OpenChat-UI, which is a fork of Chatbot UI with support for OpenChat models.
To use OpenChat-UI, follow these steps:
- Clone the OpenChat-UI repo:
git clone https://github.com/imoneoi/openchat-ui.git- Install Dependencies
npm i- Set the API host to the local server (or the address of the OpenChat server)
Create a .env.local file in the root of the OpenChat-UI repo with the following content:
OPENAI_API_HOST=http://localhost:18888
OPENAI_API_KEY=openchat-dummy-key
NEXT_PUBLIC_DEFAULT_TEMPERATURE=0.7
- Run the App
npm run devWe added an EOT (end-of-turn) token to every base model. For LLaMA models, the embedding of EOT is initialized as the average of all existing token embeddings. For StarCoder models, the embedding of EOT is randomly initialized with 0.02 standard deviation.
For LLaMA-based models with 8192 context, the max_position_embeddings was set to 8192, and RoPE codes were extrapolated. An attempt to interpolate the RoPE code was made, but it resulted in a significant drop in performance without mixing pretraining data.
🤗 Converted dataset available at openchat_sharegpt4_dataset
The dataset used in the project is a cleaned and filtered version of ShareGPT, retaining only GPT-4 conversations. The original ShareGPT contained approximately 90K conversations, and only 6K cleaned GPT-4 conversations were retained for fine-tuning.
The cleaned GPT-4 conversations were combined with conversation templates and end-of-turn tokens, then cut to the context limit of the model (further content was simply discarded).
To run the data pipeline, execute the following command:
./ochat/data/run_data_pipeline.sh INPUT_FOLDER OUTPUT_FOLDERThe input folder should contain a ShareGPT folder with .html files for each ShareGPT conversation page inside.
The data pipeline consists of three steps:
- Cleaning: HTML cleaning and conversion to Markdown, removing conversations with the wrong format, removing conversations with blocked words, and hash-based exact deduplication
- Filtering: Preserving only conversations marked as
Model: GPT-4 - Converting: Converting and tokenizing all conversations for finetuning
The final converted dataset follows the format:
MODEL_TYPE.train.json / .eval.json
[
[token_id_list, supervise_mask_list],
[token_id_list, supervise_mask_list],
...
]
MODEL_TYPE.train.text.json / .eval.text.json
Plain text decoded from token_id_list
We provide a tool for visualizing the embeddings of conversations. To use this tool, open ochat/visualization/ui/visualizer.html using a browser and drag MODEL_TYPE.visualizer.json into the webpage. Click on 3D plot points to show the corresponding conversation.
The embeddings are created using openai_embeddings.py to calculate embeddings of conversations, then UMAP dimension reduction and K-Means coloring with dim_reduction.ipynb.
OpenChat V2 leverages padding-free training and Multipack Sampler, achieving a 3x speedup compared to the last release. Now the V2 series can be trained in 6 hours and the V1 series in 1 hour.
The hyperparameters used in training the models are the same across all models:
| Global Batch Size | Learning rate | Epochs | Length Grouping | Warmup Ratio | Weight decay |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 128 | 2e-5 | 5 | True | 0.03 | 0 |
To train using 8xA100 80GB:
NUM_GPUS=8
deepspeed --num_gpus=$NUM_GPUS --module ochat.training_deepspeed.train \
--model_type MODEL_TYPE \
--model_path BASE_MODEL_PATH \
--save_path TARGET_FOLDER \
--epochs 5 \
--data_path DATASET_PATH \
--deepspeed \
--deepspeed_config ochat/training_deepspeed/deepspeed_config.json
The same routine as ChatGPT / GPT-4 was used to run other benchmarks or evaluations such as AlpacaEval. Simply run the API server and set the openai.api_base of the benchmark program.
Foundation Model Limitations Despite its advanced capabilities, OpenChat is still bound by the limitations inherent in its foundation models. These limitations may impact the model's performance in areas such as:
- Complex reasoning
- Mathematical and arithmetic tasks
- Programming and coding challenges
Hallucination of Non-existent Information OpenChat may sometimes generate information that does not exist or is not accurate, also known as "hallucination". Users should be aware of this possibility and verify any critical information obtained from the model.
High-priority
- Improving reasoning and math skills
- Updating performance on more standard benchmarks
- Training larger LLaMA models
Low-priority
- Mixing SFT data with pretraining data (e.g. RedPajama)
- Extending context by interpolating RoPE (requires mixing with pretraining data)
- Improving conversation splitting
Our weight license is subject to their corresponding base model. For example, OpenChat and OpenChat-8192 are the same as the model License of LLaMA for non-commercial use only, while OpenCoderPlus is under the License of StarCoder. Furthermore, we should follow Privacy Practices of ShareGPT. The code is released under Apache License 2.0.
💓 We are a student team from Tsinghua University. Considering that we hope to further move on our OpenChat, we need support for more computing power or LLMs API keys.
