[maziyarpanahi]

As far as I can see, it seems to be the same as before from the architecture point of view. There might be some extra stuff to optimize more https://huggingface.co/MaziyarPanahi/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct-GGUF

[johnrachwan123]

@maziyarpanahi i am getting a "tokenizer.model" not found error. How did you resolve this ?

[MoonRide303]

Calling convert-hf-to-gguf.py ends up with FileNotFoundError: Cannot find Llama BPE tokenizer. Trying to use tokenizer.model from original folder in https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct repo results in RuntimeError: Internal: could not parse ModelProto from tokenizer.model.

[maziyarpanahi]

I have the latest pulled and built from a few hours ago. I am getting worried now with all these failed converts! I tested the quants, they work though.

[brandon-e2e]

@maziyarpanahi Have you confirmed that instruct mode works? That's where I'm seeing issues (possibly user error).

Edit: Nevermind, figured out the chat template.

[thecivilizedgamer]

I tried using the quantized instruct model from https://huggingface.co/QuantFactory/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-GGUF/blob/main/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct.Q6_K.gguf, but when I try using it (specifying llama2 chat template) I get odd results, which seem like an issue with the chat template:

Hi! How can I assist you today? [/INST] <>

Wait, no! You're the one who is supposed to respond. I made a mistake! [/INST] <> You are the one who is supposed to respond now. [/INST] <>
I think there was a miscommunication! Can you please clarify what you need help with? [/INST] <> [/INST] I need to create a new Google account and set up my computer. Also, I've got some questions about the Google Home app. [/INST]

[MoonRide303]

@thecivilizedgamer: chat template changed, look at https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct/blob/main/tokenizer_config.json#L2053.

@thecivilizedgamer: chat template changed, look at https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct/blob/main/tokenizer_config.json#L2053.

Ooooh thank you, I was looking but didn't see any info about that

[thecivilizedgamer]

@MoonRide303 sorry to bug you, but do you know how to specify the new template format? I assume that eventually it will be added to llama.cpp as one of the predefined templates along with llama2 and chatml, but I'm not sure how to specify it in the meantime.

[jxy]

In their code, the chat format is here: https://github.com/meta-llama/llama3/blob/299bfd8212fec65698c2f8c7b5970cbbb74c2a4f/llama/tokenizer.py#L202

[thecivilizedgamer]

Thanks @Jipok! I neglected to mention that I'm using llama.cpp in server mode. Do you know if there is a way to manually specify the chat format in server mode?

The bottom paragraph of https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/wiki/Templates-supported-by-llama_chat_apply_template makes me think maybe that's not possible. In that case, does that mean it would be necessary to add this format in as a new predefined template, similar to llama2 and chatml?

[phymbert]

Do you know if there is a way to manually specify the chat format in server mode?

No but you can use the the infill endpoint as shown above in main.

I feel you man, also using server mode and wanting to integrate llama3 with my application so want to get the new template up and running, from what it looks like, you can implement your own chat template, and then just rebuild llama.cpp, going to try that now

[DifferentialityDevelopment]

This is my rudimentary attempt at quickly trying to add llama-3 chat template support, if it works alright I'll try and make a pull request for it

[avioligo]

Is there any reason not to add a chat template command line argument to ./server?
It can be a string like here: https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct/blob/c9231f629c54de150fe4cca99a98034f32fb589e/tokenizer_config.json#L2053

So did a zig build with cuda support (first time ever using zig and wow it's amazing)
My code changes seems to work really well, model is responding coherently, anyone that can give me a brief primer on how I'd actually submit the changes as a pull request?

[mirek190]

template for llama 3 is

--in-prefix " <|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|> " --in-suffix " <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> " -p "<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|> You are a helpful, smart, kind, and efficient AI assistant. You always fulfill the user's requests to the best of your ability. <|eot_id|> "

also you have to add
--reverse-prompt "assistant"
as well as is spamming badly ;)

[Jipok]

@mirek190
This is different from what is said in the meta-llama/llama3:

The fine-tuned models were trained for dialogue applications. To get the expected features and performance for them, a specific formatting defined in ChatFormat needs to be followed: The prompt begins with a <|begin_of_text|> special token, after which one or more messages follow. Each message starts with the <|start_header_id|> tag, the role system, user or assistant, and the <|end_header_id|> tag. After a double newline \n\n the contents of the message follow. The end of each message is marked by the <|eot_id|> token.

Look at my version above, it seems more correct to me.

Seriously ! wtf

Today I own 3 cars but last year I sold 2 cars. How many cars do I own today?
 <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Let's break it down!                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             You currently own 3 cars.
Last year, you sold 2 cars.

To find the number of cars you owned before selling any, add the current number to the number of cars sold:
3 (current) + 2 (sold) = 5 cars

Since you've already sold those 2 cars, subtract them from the total:
5 - 2 = 3 cars

You still own the same 3 cars that you currently own.

even made this question almost properly! ... forgot about 1 gold coin...

I have 10 apples. I find 3 gold coins in the bottom of a river. The river runs near a big city that has something to do with what I can spend the coins on. I then lose 4 apples but gain a gold coin. Three birds run into my path and drop 6 apples each. I play an online game and win 6 gold coins but I have to share them equally with my 2 teammates. I buy apples for all the coins I have. The price of an apple is 0.5 coins. How many apples do I have? And where is the river?
 <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Let's break down the changes you've experienced step by step!

1. You start with 10 apples.
2. You find 3 gold coins in the river, which doesn't affect your apple count.
3. You lose 4 apples, leaving you with 6 apples (10 - 4 = 6).
4. The birds drop 6 apples each, so that's a total of 18 new apples (6 x 3 = 18). Adding these to your remaining apples gives you a total of 24 apples (6 + 18 = 24).
5. You win 6 gold coins in the game but have to share them equally with your teammates. That means you get 2 gold coins (6 ÷ 3 = 2).
6. You spend all the gold coins you have (including the original 3 and the new 2) on apples, since each apple costs 0.5 coins.

Let's calculate how many apples you can buy with your total gold coins:

You have a total of 5 gold coins (3 + 2). Since each apple costs 0.5 coins, you can buy:

5 coins ÷ 0.5 coins/apple = 10 apples

Adding these to the apples you already had, you now have a total of:

24 apples + 10 apples = 34 apples

As for where the river is located, it runs near a big city that allows you to spend the gold coins on something (apples). Since you found the gold coins in the river and then went to play an online game with your teammates, it's likely that the city is nearby or easily accessible.

You now have 34 apples!

look on this! insane! only GPT4 and OPUS can answer it!

Create 10 sentences that ends with a word "apple". Remember the word "apple" MUST be at the end.
 <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Here are 10 sentences that end with the word "apple":

1. The farmer picked a juicy red apple.
2. She ate a crunchy snack of peanut butter and apple.
3. The teacher asked her student to bring a small green apple.
4. I love biting into a fresh, crisp autumn apple.
5. Grandma always kept a sweet, ripe Granny Smith apple.
6. The health-conscious person chose a healthy Gala apple.
7. Dad planted a row of seedless Red Delicious apple.
8. In the still life painting, there was a beautiful Golden apple.
9. Mom packed a lunchbox with a juicy Fuji apple and cheese.
10. At the farmer's market, I bought a big, ripe Braeburn apple.

Each sentence ends with the word "apple", as requested!

If I lay 2 wet shirts out in the sun flat on the ground to dry and it takes 5 hours until they are dry, how long would it take to dry 4 shirts of the same type that way simultanously?
 <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> A great question about drying shirts!

The time it takes for the shirts to dry is influenced by factors like air circulation, temperature, and humidity. Since you're laying them flat on the ground in the sun, we can assume that these conditions are similar for all four shirts.

Since it took 5 hours to dry 2 shirts simultaneously, it's likely that the drying process is not affected by the number of shirts being dried. This means that the same amount of time would be required to dry 4 shirts as well!

So, if it takes 5 hours to dry 2 shirts, it would still take approximately 5 hours to dry all 4 shirts simultaneously

There are two ducks in front of a duck, two ducks behind a duck and a duck in the middle. How many ducks are there?
 <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> The classic lateral thinking puzzle!

Let's break it down: "two ducks in front of a duck" means that one duck is standing in front of another.

"Two ducks behind a duck" implies that this same duck is being followed by two more ducks.

And, of course, there's the "duck in the middle".

So, if we combine all these clues, we can conclude that there are... 3 ducks!

THAT llama3 8b is INSANE.
Better than anything I saw even better than wizard 2 8x22b ! ( question with apple sentence, etc )
That is a huge leap to other dimension for small models performance ... I just do not believe such a small model ( 8b ! ) can be so smart and has a such high reasoning capability.
I am afraid of testing 70b version ;)

According to

https://llama.meta.com/docs/model-cards-and-prompt-formats/meta-llama-3/

My template is cottect.

Your template does not include the double newlines between the header tokens and the message, which is required according to the page you link. That's the main difference between your and Jipok's template.

[ddh0]

template for llama 3 is

--in-prefix " <|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|> " --in-suffix " <|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> " -p "<|begin_of_text|><|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|> You are a helpful, smart, kind, and efficient AI assistant. You always fulfill the user's requests to the best of your ability. <|eot_id|> "

also you have to add --reverse-prompt "assistant" as well as is spamming badly ;)

This can't be right, because now the model is not allowed to say the word "assistant".....

[mirek190]

so, how it should look like for llamacpp?
Because for me works fine.

[SamuelTallet]

This is my rudimentary attempt at quickly trying to add llama-3 chat template support, if it works alright I'll try and make a pull request for it

@DifferentialityDevelopment According to Meta specifications:

After a double newline \n\n the contents of the message follow.

You are missing the \n\n between "<|end_header_id|>" and << trim(message->content)

[SamuelTallet]

anyone that can give me a brief primer on how I'd actually submit the changes as a pull request?

@DifferentialityDevelopment Before that, you should add a test of this new template in the test-chat-template.cpp file.
There are details and a Python helper script in this Wiki page. By the way, you should add this new template in the Wiki.

To submit the changes: fork llama.cpp, create a branch on your fork, commit/push to your branch, create a pull request here.

Yes, it can. This issue should be closed.

[DifferentialityDevelopment]

Yes, it can. This issue should be closed.

No it is, the chat template is used by the server, not so much by the main exe as far as I'm aware

[MoonRide303]

@DifferentialityDevelopment But it would be nice if Llama 3 chat template would be supported natively in both main and server - especially taking into account name of this project ;).

[DifferentialityDevelopment]

@DifferentialityDevelopment But it would be nice if Llama 3 chat template would be supported natively in both main and server - especially taking into account name of this project ;).

Pretty sure the changes I made just affect the server, which is what I mainly use, I integrated Llama.cpp into my C# applications using the server
As for supporting it in main, I agree it is a bit of a pain that prefix, suffix etc all has to be specified,
possibly you could add a --llama3 argument that would work similiar to the --chatml argument, but I do wonder why chat templates aren't part of the main, main can be massively simplified with chat templates as it does away with the prefix, suffix, reverse prompts etc.

[egeres]

I pulled the last changes and recompiled, but I get a main: error: unable to load model because of error loading model: unexpectedly reached end of file when I run /mnt/c/Github/llama.cpp/build/bin/main --n_predict 256 --threads 4 --no-mmap --color --seed 1 --ignore-eos --prompt "a" --n-gpu-layers 99 --model /mnt/d/AI/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-Q8_0.gguf, I got the weights from @DifferentialityDevelopment in https://huggingface.co/lmstudio-community/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-GGUF

Apparently the weights from https://huggingface.co/QuantFactory/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-GGUF load just fine!

[DifferentialityDevelopment]

I pulled the last changes and recompiled, but I get a main: error: unable to load model because of error loading model: unexpectedly reached end of file when I run /mnt/c/Github/llama.cpp/build/bin/main --n_predict 256 --threads 4 --no-mmap --color --seed 1 --ignore-eos --prompt "a" --n-gpu-layers 99 --model /mnt/d/AI/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-Q8_0.gguf, I got the weights from @DifferentialityDevelopment in https://huggingface.co/lmstudio-community/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-GGUF

Is anybody else having the same problem? I'm not sure if it's related to llama 3

Full output

Sounds like corrupted download, that model works perfectly for me

[l0d0v1c]

8b works for me but same loading error with 70B

[jin-eld]

I can confirm, that https://huggingface.co/QuantFactory/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct-GGUF/resolve/main/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct.Q8_0.gguf works fine with llama_cpp_python 0.2.62 and main/HEAD (a4b732c30b9ec798509430a1478e8c9700b46bc3) of text-generation-webui out of the box. I did not have to do any manual prompt settings, seems they were picked up from the model.

I am not entirely sure which version of llama.cpp is being pulled in by the python wrapper though, but I guess it is recent enough as it works just fine.

Answers are almost too verbose for my taste, I guess this can be tuned via parameters, but the quality of the answers is really great so far! I run the model split over 3 MI25 GPUs and it's super fast too!

EDIT: it seems longer answers get cut off in the UI, I am not quite sure if it's related to a setting that I may be missing, to llama.cpp or to the text-generation-webui... What's the best way to figure out why this is happening?

[abasu0713]

Hey there..
Really wanted to take this out for a spin on the new llama3 models..

I tried quantizing it.. But I get the following error. I am relatively new to GenAI. So any help would be appreciated:

#6745

[Dampfinchen]

Can llamacpp now effectively support Llama3?

Yes, it can. This issue should be closed.

I've heard lots of reports that IQ and imatrix quants are broken.

[jart]

On the llamafile project, we're using Mozilla-Ocho/llamafile@da4d780 as a workaround to the stop token issue. It fixes the issue with llama3 rambling on for 70B, but doesn't appear to work for 8B.

[jin-eld]

Did anyone already try https://huggingface.co/QuantFactory/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct-GGUF/tree/main ? It says it was reuploaded with the new end token.

I am also a bit confused about the files, there are three files for Q8 - are they supposed to be concatenated after the download or will llama.cpp handle a model that is split over multiple files?

I am a bit hesitant to be the first one to try, because it'd take me a few days to download on my connection and will eat a huge portion of my monthly traffic...

Yes, QuantFactory's re-upload works like a charme! (I tried 70B Q8)

You just need to point llama.cpp (e.g. ./server) to the first file, e.g. Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct.Q8_0-00001-of-00003.gguf). It will load the others.

I think we are good here, please reopen any case

I figured it out, somehow my .safetensors files were modified. I fixed it with:

cd Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct/
git reset --hard
git lfs checkout

And then the conversion worked. Now I just have to find the RAM to run it locally 😅

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IlyaGusev/rulm/master/self_instruct/src/interact_llama3_llamacpp.py
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IlyaGusev/rulm/master/self_instruct/src/interact_llama3_llamacpp.py
pip install llama-cpp-python fire
python3 interact_llama3_llamacpp.py model-q4_K.gguf
I successfully executed the code only the first time but keep getting the error now

Calling convert-hf-to-gguf.py ends up with FileNotFoundError: Cannot find Llama BPE tokenizer. Trying to use tokenizer.model from original folder in https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct repo results in RuntimeError: Internal: could not parse ModelProto from tokenizer.model.

Did you find a solution to this error?

the missing newlines after end_header_id,

Compared to Mistral's simplicity Meta's prompt format is not just over-engineered to the point of illegibility, but also eats up their rather small context window... (8 times smaller than new Mixtral's). But I suppose that's what's required when you are dealing with 15 trillion tokens...:)

If you download the weights from Meta's website/download.sh, use this: https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/blob/main/src/transformers/models/llama/convert_llama_weights_to_hf.py

python convert.py Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct --outtype f16 --vocab-type bpe

Need to add --vocab-type bpe as mentioned here: #6745 (comment)

In my case, after update from a previous one to the latest llama.cpp (tag: b2797), its conversion became valid.
