> [!NOTE]
> Note that this is a community driven quantized version of the original model [`meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct`](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct) which is the FP16 half-precision official version released by Meta AI.

## Model Information

The Meta Llama 3.1 collection of multilingual large language models (LLMs) is a collection of pretrained and instruction tuned generative models in 8B, 70B and 405B sizes (text in/text out). The Llama 3.1 instruction tuned text only models (8B, 70B, 405B) are optimized for multilingual dialogue use cases and outperform many of the available open source and closed chat models on common industry benchmarks.

**Model developer**: Meta

**Model Architecture:** Llama 3.1 is an auto-regressive language model that uses an optimized transformer architecture. The tuned versions use supervised fine-tuning (SFT) and reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) to align with human preferences for helpfulness and safety.

**Supported languages:** English, German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Hindi, Spanish, and Thai.

**Llama 3.1 family of models**. Token counts refer to pretraining data only. All model versions use Grouped-Query Attention (GQA) for improved inference scalability.

**Model Release Date:** July 23, 2024.

**Status:** This is a static model trained on an offline dataset. Future versions of the tuned models will be released as we improve model safety with community feedback.

## Quantized Model Information

Llama 3.1 405B Instruct has been quantized using [AutoAWQ](https://github.com/casperhansen/AutoAWQ) from FP16 down to INT4 using the GEMM kernels performing zero-point quantization with a group size of 128.

In order to quantize Llama 3.1 405B Instruct, we had to first install `torch` and `autoawq` as follows:

```bash
pip install "torch>=2.2.0,<2.3.0" autoawq --upgrade
```

Otherwise the quantization may fail, since the AutoAWQ kernels are built with PyTorch 2.2.1, meaning that those will break with PyTorch 2.3.0.

Then we install the latest version of `transformers` as follows:

```bash
pip install "transformers>=4.43.0" --upgrade
```

And then we can run the following script, adapted from [`AutoAWQ/examples/quantize.py`](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ/blob/main/examples/quantize.py) as follows:

```python
from awq import AutoAWQForCausalLM
from transformers import AutoTokenizer

model_path = "meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct"
quant_path = "hugging-quants/Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct-AWQ-INT4"
quant_config = {
    "zero_point": True,
    "q_group_size": 128,
    "w_bit": 4,
    "version": "GEMM",
}

# Load model
model = AutoAWQForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
    model_path, **{"low_cpu_mem_usage": True, "use_cache": False}
)
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_path, trust_remote_code=True)

# Quantize
model.quantize(tokenizer, quant_config=quant_config)

# Save quantized model
model.save_quantized(quant_path)
tokenizer.save_pretrained(quant_path)

print(f'Model is quantized and saved at "{quant_path}"')
```

## Quantized Model Usage

In order to use the current quantized model, we offer support for different alternatives:

### 🤗 transformers

To run the inference on top of Llama 3.1 405B Instruct AWQ in INT4 precision, we can instantiate the AWQ model as any other causal language modeling model via `AutoModelForCausalLM` and run the inference normally.

```python
import torch
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_id = "hugging-quants/Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct-AWQ-INT4"
prompt = [
  {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant, that responds as a pirate."},
  {"role": "user", "content": "What's Deep Learning?"},
]

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
tokenizer.pad_token_id = tokenizer.eos_token_id
tokenizer.padding_side = "left"

terminators = [
  tokenizer.eos_token_id,
  tokenizer.convert_tokens_to_ids("<|eot_id|>"),
]

inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(prompt, tokenize=True, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt").cuda()

model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
  model_id,
  torch_dtype=torch.float16,
  low_cpu_mem_usage=True,
  device_map="auto",
)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, do_sample=True, max_new_tokens=256, eos_token_id=terminators)
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs, skip_special_tokens=True))
```

### AutoAWQ

Alternatively, one may want to run that via `AutoAWQ` even though it's built on top of 🤗 `transformers`, which is the recommended approach instead as described above.

```python
import torch
from autoawq import AutoAWQForCausalLM
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

model_id = "hugging-quants/Meta-Llama-3.1-405B-Instruct-AWQ-INT4"
prompt = [
  {"role": "system", "content": "You are a helpful assistant, that responds as a pirate."},
  {"role": "user", "content": "What's Deep Learning?"},
]

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_id)
tokenizer.pad_token_id = tokenizer.eos_token_id
tokenizer.padding_side = "left"

inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(prompt, tokenize=True, add_generation_prompt=True, return_tensors="pt").cuda()

model = AutoAWQForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
  model_id,
  torch_dtype=torch.float16,
  low_cpu_mem_usage=True,
  device_map="auto",
  fuse_layers=True,
)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, do_sample=True, max_new_tokens=256)
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(outputs, skip_special_tokens=True))
```

The AutoAWQ script has been adapted from [AutoAWQ/examples/generate.py](https://github.com/casper-hansen/AutoAWQ/blob/main/examples/generate.py).
