How to use unsloth/llama-3-8b with Docker Model Runner:
docker model run hf.co/unsloth/llama-3-8b
is this the llama-3-8b model clone?
:D
No, this is false llama3
:D
Yes, it is the clone but it is specifically designed for Unsloth users to train it 2xfaster with 60% less memory etc
No, this is false llama3
Sorry what is this supposed to mean? :)
Yes it's a clone :) But no gated access, and works seamlessly for Unsloth users
Am just throw a false alarm in case author didn't response.
Performance seems worse than llama2-7b
This is base model
This is base model
correct it is the base model!
Performance seems worse than llama2-7b
Really? Do you happen to see in which areas?
The performance of 8B Instruct models (unsloth) are much better than their llama2 counterpath, however logical reasoning is still not so good, for example asking which is heavier 1 kg feather or 2 kg feather yields wrong output.
The hash code of the files between https://hf-mirror.com/unsloth/llama-3-8b/ and https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B/ is different,
so if you sure that it's a clone?
@shimmyshimmer
@upupbug Oh sorry actually there is a difference - our base model trained the <eot> and <start_header> tokens since it was untrained in llama-3 base. We only editted the lm_head and embed_tokens for these 2 tokens
@upupbug I reuploaded it and removed our changes! Instead I might manually edit the tokens in a future release
