We now add LoRA adapters so we only need to update 1 to 10% of all parameters!
Unsloth 2024.4 patched 32 layers with 32 QKV layers, 32 O layers and 32 MLP layers.
Data Prep
We now use a special ORPO style dataset from recipe-research.
You need at least 3 columns:
- Instruction
- Accepted
- Rejected
For example:
- Instruction: "What is 2+2?"
- Accepted: "The answer is 4"
- Rejected: "The answer is 5"
The goal of ORPO is to penalize the "rejected" samples, and increase the likelihood of "accepted" samples. recipe-research essentially used Mistral to generate the "rejected" responses, and used GPT-4 to generated the "accepted" responses.

Let's print out some examples to see how the dataset should look like
INSTRUCTION: ==================================================
('Below is an instruction that describes a task, paired with an input that '
'provides further context. Write a response that appropriately completes the '
'request.\n'
'\n'
'### Instruction:\n'
'You are an AI assistant that helps people find information.\n'
'\n'
'### Input:\n'
'Given the rationale, provide a reasonable question and answer. Step-by-step '
'reasoning process: Xkcd comics are very popular amongst internet users.\n'
' The question and answer:\n'
'\n'
'### Response:\n')
ACCEPTED: ==================================================
('Question: What makes Xkcd comics popular among internet users?\n'
'\n'
'Answer: Xkcd comics are popular among internet users because of their clever '
'humor, relatable themes, and minimalist art style. They often cover topics '
'like science, technology, and life experiences, making them appealing to a '
'broad audience.<|end_of_text|>')
REJECTED: ==================================================
('Question: What is the reason behind the popularity of Xkcd comics among '
'internet users?\n'
'\n'
'Answer: Xkcd comics are popular among internet users because they offer a '
'unique blend of humor, relatable content, and thought-provoking topics that '
'resonate with a wide range of people. The comics often address everyday '
'experiences, technology, and social issues, making them accessible and '
'enjoyable for many individuals. Additionally, the simple and minimalistic '
'art style of Xkcd comics allows for easy comprehension and sharing, '

You can also use a TextStreamer for continuous inference - so you can see the generation token by token, instead of waiting the whole time!

You can also use Hugging Face's AutoPeftModelForCausalLM. Only use this if you do not have unsloth installed. It can be hopelessly slow, since 4bit model downloading is not supported, and Unsloth's inference is 2x faster.
Saving to float16 for VLLM
We also support saving to float16 directly. Select merged_16bit for float16 or merged_4bit for int4. We also allow lora adapters as a fallback. Use push_to_hub_merged to upload to your Hugging Face account! You can go to https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens for your personal tokens. See our docs for more deployment options.
GGUF / llama.cpp Conversion
To save to GGUF / llama.cpp, we support it natively now! We clone llama.cpp and we default save it to q8_0. We allow all methods like q4_k_m. Use save_pretrained_gguf for local saving and push_to_hub_gguf for uploading to HF.
Some supported quant methods (full list on our docs page):
q8_0- Fast conversion. High resource use, but generally acceptable.q4_k_m- Recommended. Uses Q6_K for half of the attention.wv and feed_forward.w2 tensors, else Q4_K.q5_k_m- Recommended. Uses Q6_K for half of the attention.wv and feed_forward.w2 tensors, else Q5_K.
