About GPT-NeoX
An implementation of model parallel autoregressive transformers on GPUs, based on the DeepSpeed library.
This repository records EleutherAI's library for training large-scale language models on GPUs. Our current framework is based on NVIDIA's Megatron Language Model and has been augmented with techniques from DeepSpeed as well as some novel optimizations. We aim to make this repo a centralized and accessible place to gather techniques for training large-scale autoregressive language models, and accelerate research into large-scale training.

OPT
Large language models, which are often trained for hundreds of thousands of compute days, have shown remarkable capabilities for zero- and few-shot learning. Given their computational cost, these models are difficult to replicate without significant capital. For the few that are available through APIs, no access is granted to the full model weights, making them difficult to study. We present Open Pre-trained Transformers (OPT), a suite of decoder-only pre-trained transformers ranging from 125M to 175B parameters, which we aim to fully and responsibly share with interested researchers. We show that OPT-175B is comparable to GPT-3, while requiring only 1/7th the carbon footprint to develop. We are also releasing our logbook detailing the infrastructure challenges we faced, along with code for experimenting with all of the released models.

GPT-J
GPT-J is a cutting-edge language model created by the research organization EleutherAI. In terms of performance, GPT-J exhibits a level of proficiency comparable to that of OpenAI's renowned GPT-3 model in a range of zero-shot tasks. Notably, GPT-J has demonstrated the ability to surpass GPT-3 in tasks related to generating code. The latest iteration of this language model, known as GPT-J-6B, is built upon a linguistic dataset referred to as The Pile. This dataset, which is publicly available, encompasses a substantial volume of 825 gibibytes of language data, organized into 22 distinct subsets. While GPT-J shares certain capabilities with ChatGPT, it is important to note that GPT-J is not designed to operate as a chatbot; rather, its primary function is to predict text. In a significant development in March 2023, Databricks introduced Dolly, a model that follows instructions and is licensed under Apache.

DeepSpeed
DeepSpeed is an open source deep learning optimization library for PyTorch. It's designed to reduce computing power and memory use, and to train large distributed models with better parallelism on existing computer hardware. DeepSpeed is optimized for low latency, high throughput training.
DeepSpeed can train DL models with over a hundred billion parameters on the current generation of GPU clusters. It can also train up to 13 billion parameters in a single GPU.
DeepSpeed is developed by Microsoft and aims to offer distributed training for large-scale models. It's built on top of PyTorch, which specializes in data parallelism.
