LLM Zoo: democratizing ChatGPT

⚡LLM Zoo is a project that provides data, models, and evaluation benchmark for large language models.⚡ [Tech Report]

✨ Latest News

[05/05/2023]: Release the training code. Now, you can replicate a multilingual instruction-following LLM by yourself. :-)
[04/24/2023]: Add more results (e.g., MOSS) in the evaluation benchmark.
[04/08/2023]: Release the Phoenix (for all languages) and Chimera (for Latin languages) models.

🤔 Motivation

Break "AI supremacy" and democratize ChatGPT

"AI supremacy" is understood as a company's absolute leadership and monopoly position in an AI field, which may even include exclusive capabilities beyond general artificial intelligence. This is unacceptable for AI community and may even lead to individual influence on the direction of the human future, thus bringing various hazards to human society.

Make ChatGPT-like LLM accessible across countries and languages
Make AI open again. Every person, regardless of their skin color or place of birth, should have equal access to the technology gifted by the creator. For example, many pioneers have made great efforts to spread the use of light bulbs and vaccines to developing countries. Similarly, ChatGPT, one of the greatest technological advancements in modern history, should also be made available to all.

The key difference between existing models and ours.

The key difference in our models is that we utilize two sets of data, namely instructions and conversations, which were previously only used by Alpaca and Vicuna respectively. We believe that incorporating both types of data is essential for a recipe to achieve a proficient language model. The rationale is that the instruction data helps to tame language models to adhere to human instructions and fulfill their information requirements, while the conversation data facilitates the development of conversational skills in the model. Together, these two types of data complement each other to create a more well-rounded language model.

Phoenix (LLM across Languages)

The philosophy to name

The first model is named Phoenix. In Chinese culture, the Phoenix is commonly regarded as a symbol of the king of birds; as the saying goes "百鸟朝凤", indicating its ability to coordinate with all birds, even if they speak different languages. We refer to Phoenix as the one capable of understanding and speaking hundreds of (bird) languages. More importantly, Phoenix is the totem of "the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen" (CUHKSZ); it goes without saying this is also for the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK).

Model	Backbone	Data	Link
Phoenix-chat-7b	BLOOMZ-7b1-mt	Conversation	parameters
Phoenix-inst-chat-7b	BLOOMZ-7b1-mt	Instruction + Conversation	parameters
Phoenix-inst-chat-7b-int4	BLOOMZ-7b1-mt	Instruction + Conversation	parameters

Chimera (LLM mainly for Latin and Cyrillic languages)

The philosophy to name

The philosophy to name: The biggest barrier to LLM is that we do not have enough candidate names for LLMs, as LLAMA, Guanaco, Vicuna, and Alpaca have already been used, and there are no more members in the camel family. Therefore, we find a similar hybrid creature in Greek mythology, Chimera, composed of different Lycia and Asia Minor animal parts. Coincidentally, it is a hero/role in DOTA (and also Warcraft III). It could therefore be used to memorize a period of playing games overnight during high school and undergraduate time.

Model	Backbone	Data	Link
Chimera-chat-7b	LLaMA-7b	Conversation	parameters (delta)
Chimera-chat-13b	LLaMA-13b	Conversation	parameters (delta)
Chimera-inst-chat-7b	LLaMA-7b	Instruction + Conversation	parameters (delta)
Chimera-inst-chat-13b	LLaMA-13b	Instruction + Conversation	parameters (delta)

Due to LLaMA's license restrictions, we follow FastChat to release our delta weights. To use Chimera, download the original LLaMA weights and run the script:

python tools/apply_delta.py \
 --base /path/to/llama-13b \
 --target /output/path/to/chimera-inst-chat-13b \
 --delta FreedomIntelligence/chimera-inst-chat-13b-delta

CAMEL (Chinese And Medically Enhanced Langauge models)

The philosophy to name

The philosophy to name: Its Chinese name is HuatuoGPT or 华佗GPT to commemorate the great Chinese physician named Hua Tuo (华佗), who lived around 200 AC. Training is already finished; we will release it in two weeks; some efforts are needed to deploy it in public cloud servers in case of massive requests.

Check our models in HuatuoGPT or try our demo (API key required). Similar biomedical models could be seen in biomedical LLMs.

🧐 Evaluation and Benchmark

We provide a bilingual, multidimensional comparison across different open-source models with ours.

Chinese

Automatic Evaluation Using GPT-4:

Model	Ratio
Phoenix-inst-chat-7b vs. ChatGPT	85.2%
Phoenix-inst-chat-7b vs. ChatGLM-6b	94.6%
Phoenix-inst-chat-7b vs. Baidu-Wenxin	96.8%
Phoenix-inst-chat-7b vs. MOSS-moon-003-sft	109.7%
Phoenix-inst-chat-7b vs. BELLE-7b-2m	122.7%
Phoenix-inst-chat-7b vs. Chinese-Alpaca-7b	135.3%
Phoenix-inst-chat-7b vs. Chinese-Alpaca-13b	125.2%

Observation: It shows that Phoenix-chat-7b achieves 85.2% performance of ChatGPT in Chinese. It slightly underperforms Baidu-Wenxin (96.8%) and ChatGLM-6b (94.6 %), both are not fully open-source; ChatGLM-6b only provides model weights without training data and details. Although Phoenix is a multilingual LLM, it achieves SOTA performance among all open-source Chinese LLMs.

Human Evaluation:

	win	tie	lose
Phoenix vs. ChatGPT	12	35	53
Phoenix vs. ChatGLM-6b	36	11	53
Phoenix vs. Baidu-Wenxin	29	25	46
Phoenix vs. BELLE-7b-2m	55	31	14
Phoenix vs. Chinese-Alpaca-13b	56	31	13

Observation: It shows that the human evaluation results show the same trend as the automatic evaluation results.

English

Automatic Evaluation Using GPT-4:

Model	Ratio
Chimera-chat-7b vs. ChatGPT	85.2%
Chimera-chat-13b vs. ChatGPT	92.6%
Chimera-inst-chat-13b vs. ChatGPT	96.6%

👾 Quantization

We offer int8 and int4 quantizations, which will largely reduce the GPU memory consumption, e.g., from ~28GB to ~7GB for phoenix.

Int8

You can directly obatin int8 version of phoenix by passing --load-8bit when using cli inference. E.g.,

python -m llmzoo.deploy.cli --model-path FreedomIntelligence/phoenix-inst-chat-7b --load-8bit

Int4

For int4 version, we take advantage of GPTQ. You can directly obatin int4 version of Phoenix by passing int4 version model and --load-4bit when using cli inference. This would require package AutoGPTQ be installed. E.g.,

python -m llmzoo.deploy.cli --model-path FreedomIntelligence/phoenix-inst-chat-7b-int4 --load-4bit

We use AutoGPTQ to support Phoenix via,

BUILD_CUDA_EXT=0 pip install auto-gptq[triton]

For Chimera, we can not share the int4 version parameters due to restrictions. And you can follow the example in our patched AutoGPTQ to conduct quantization by yourselves.

Thank yhyu13, please check the merged weight and GPTQ quantized weight for chimera in chimera-inst-chat-13b-hf and chimera-inst-chat-13b-gptq-4bit.

Inference in pure C/C++: You can refer to this link to run Chimera or Phoenix on your PC.

🏭 Deployment

Launch a controller

python -m llmzoo.deploy.webapp.controller

Launch a model worker

python -m llmzoo.deploy.webapp.model_worker --model-path /path/to/weights/

Launch a gradio web server

python -m llmzoo.deploy.webapp.gradio_web_server

Now, you can open your browser and chat with a model.

😀 Training by yourself

Prepare the data

You can either download the phoenix-sft-data-v1 data or prepare your own data. Put your data on the path data/data.json.

Training

For Phoenix, run

bash scripts/train_phoenix_7b.sh

For Chimera, prepare the LLaMA weights following this instruction and run

bash scripts/train_chimera_7b.sh
bash scripts/train_chimera_13b.sh

🤖 Limitations

Our goal in releasing our models is to assist our community in better replicating ChatGPT/GPT4. We are not targeting competition with other competitors, as benchmarking models is a challenging task. Our models face similar models to those of ChatGPT/GPT4, which include:

Lack of common sense: our models may not always have the ability to apply common sense knowledge to situations, which can lead to nonsensical or inappropriate responses.
Limited knowledge domain: our models' knowledge is based on the data it was trained on, and it may not have the ability to provide accurate or relevant responses outside that domain.
Biases: our models may have biases that reflect the biases in the data it was trained on, which can result in unintended consequences or unfair treatment.
Inability to understand emotions: While our models can understand language, it may not always be able to understand the emotional tone behind it, which can lead to inappropriate or insensitive responses.
Misunderstandings due to context: our models may misunderstand the context of a conversation, leading to misinterpretation and incorrect responses.
