CalderaAI's 30B Epsilon GGML

These files are GGML format model files for CalderaAI's 30B Epsilon.

GGML files are for CPU + GPU inference using llama.cpp and libraries and UIs which support this format, such as:

KoboldCpp, a powerful GGML web UI with full GPU acceleration out of the box. Especially good for story telling.
LoLLMS Web UI, a great web UI with GPU acceleration via the c_transformers backend.
LM Studio, a fully featured local GUI. Supports full GPU accel on macOS. Also supports Windows, without GPU accel.
text-generation-webui, the most popular web UI. Requires extra steps to enable GPU accel via llama.cpp backend.
ctransformers, a Python library with LangChain support and OpenAI-compatible AI server.
llama-cpp-python, a Python library with OpenAI-compatible API server.

Compatibility

Original llama.cpp quant methods: `q4_0, q4_1, q5_0, q5_1, q8_0`

These are guaranteed to be compatible with any UIs, tools and libraries released since late May. They may be phased out soon, as they are largely superseded by the new k-quant methods.

New k-quant methods: `q2_K, q3_K_S, q3_K_M, q3_K_L, q4_K_S, q4_K_M, q5_K_S, q6_K`

These new quantisation methods are compatible with llama.cpp as of June 6th, commit 2d43387.

They are now also compatible with recent releases of text-generation-webui, KoboldCpp, llama-cpp-python, ctransformers, rustformers and most others. For compatibility with other tools and libraries, please check their documentation.

Explanation of the new k-quant methods

Click to see details

The new methods available are:

GGML_TYPE_Q2_K - "type-1" 2-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weight. Block scales and mins are quantized with 4 bits. This ends up effectively using 2.5625 bits per weight (bpw)
GGML_TYPE_Q3_K - "type-0" 3-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 6 bits. This end up using 3.4375 bpw.
GGML_TYPE_Q4_K - "type-1" 4-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 8 blocks, each block having 32 weights. Scales and mins are quantized with 6 bits. This ends up using 4.5 bpw.
GGML_TYPE_Q5_K - "type-1" 5-bit quantization. Same super-block structure as GGML_TYPE_Q4_K resulting in 5.5 bpw
GGML_TYPE_Q6_K - "type-0" 6-bit quantization. Super-blocks with 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 8 bits. This ends up using 6.5625 bpw
GGML_TYPE_Q8_K - "type-0" 8-bit quantization. Only used for quantizing intermediate results. The difference to the existing Q8_0 is that the block size is 256. All 2-6 bit dot products are implemented for this quantization type.

Note: the above RAM figures assume no GPU offloading. If layers are offloaded to the GPU, this will reduce RAM usage and use VRAM instead.

How to run in `llama.cpp`

I use the following command line; adjust for your tastes and needs:

./main -t 10 -ngl 32 -m 30b-epsilon.ggmlv3.q4_0.bin --color -c 2048 --temp 0.7 --repeat_penalty 1.1 -n -1 -p "### Instruction: Write a story about llamas\n### Response:"

Change -t 10 to the number of physical CPU cores you have. For example if your system has 8 cores/16 threads, use -t 8.

Change -ngl 32 to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Remove it if you don't have GPU acceleration.

If you want to have a chat-style conversation, replace the -p <PROMPT> argument with -i -ins

How to run in `text-generation-webui`

Thanks to the chirper.ai team!

I've had a lot of people ask if they can contribute. I enjoy providing models and helping people, and would love to be able to spend even more time doing it, as well as expanding into new projects like fine tuning/training.

If you're able and willing to contribute it will be most gratefully received and will help me to keep providing more models, and to start work on new AI projects.

Original model card: CalderaAI's 30B Epsilon

30B-Epsilon

Epsilon is an instruct based general purpose model assembled from hand picked models and LoRAs. There is no censorship and it follows instructions in the Alpaca format. This means you can create your own rules in the context memory of your inference system of choice [mainly KoboldAI or Text Generation Webui and chat UIs like SillyTavern and so on].

Composition:

This model is the result of an experimental use of LoRAs on language models and model merges. [] = applied as LoRA to a composite model | () = combined as composite models 30B-Epsilon = [SuperCOT[SuperHOT-prototype13b-8192[(wizardlmuncensored+((hippogriff+manticore)+(StoryV2))]

Alpaca's instruct format can be used to do many things, including control of the terms of behavior between a user and a response from an agent in chat. Below is an example of a command injected into memory.

### Instruction:
Make Narrator function as a text based adventure game that responds with verbose, detailed, and creative descriptions of what happens next after Player's response.
Make Player function as the player input for Narrator's text based adventure game, controlling a character named (insert character name here, their short bio, and
whatever quest or other information to keep consistent in the interaction).

### Response:
{an empty new line here}

All datasets from all models and LoRAs used were documented and reviewed as model candidates for merging. Model candidates were based on five core principles: creativity, logic, inference, instruction following, and longevity of trained responses. SuperHOT-prototype30b-8192 was used in this mix, not the 8K version; the prototype LoRA seems to have been removed [from HF] as of this writing. The GPT4Alpaca LoRA from Chansung was removed from this amalgam following a thorough review of where censorship and railroading the user came from in 33B-Lazarus. This is not a reflection of ChanSung's excellent work - it merely did not fit the purpose of this model.
