Simple command line chat program for GPT-J, LLaMA and MPT models written in C++. Based on llama.cpp and uses gpt4all-backend for full compatibility.
Warning Very early progress, might have bugs
Since the program is made using c++ it should build and run on most Linux, MacOS and Windows systems. The Releases link has ready-made binaries. AVX2 is faster and works on most newer computers. If you run the program, it will check and print if your computer has AVX2 support.
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/kuvaus/LlamaGPTJ-chat
cd LlamaGPTJ-chatYou need to also download a model file, see supported models for details and links.
Since the program is made using c++ it should build and run on most Linux, MacOS and Windows systems. On most systems, you only need this to build:
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build . --parallelNote
If you have an old processor, you can turn AVX2 instructions OFF in the build step with
-DAVX2=OFFflag.If you have a new processor, you can turn AVX512 instructions ON in the build step with
-DAVX512=ONflag.On old macOS, set
-DBUILD_UNIVERSAL=OFFto make the build x86 only instead of the universal Intel/ARM64 binary. On really old macOS, set-DOLD_MACOS=ON. This disables/saveand/loadbut compiles on old Xcode.On Windows you can now use Visual Studio (MSVC) or MinGW. If you want MinGW build instead, set
-G "MinGW Makefiles".On ARM64 Linux there are no ready-made binaries, but you can now build it from source.
After compiling, the binary is located at:
build/bin/chatBut you're free to move it anywhere. Simple command for 4 threads to get started:
./chat -m "/path/to/modelfile/ggml-vicuna-13b-1.1-q4_2.bin" -t 4or
./chat -m "/path/to/modelfile/ggml-gpt4all-j-v1.3-groovy.bin" -t 4Happy chatting!
Current backend supports the GPT-J, LLaMA and MPT models.
You need to download a GPT-J model first. Here are direct links to models:
- The default version is v1.0: ggml-gpt4all-j.bin
- At the time of writing the newest is 1.3-groovy: ggml-gpt4all-j-v1.3-groovy.bin
They're around 3.8 Gb each. The chat program stores the model in RAM on runtime so you need enough memory to run. You can get more details on GPT-J models from gpt4all.io or nomic-ai/gpt4all github.
Alternatively you need to download a LLaMA model first. The original weights are for research purposes and you can apply for access here. Below are direct links to derived models:
- Vicuna 7b v1.1: ggml-vicuna-7b-1.1-q4_2.bin
- Vicuna 13b v1.1: ggml-vicuna-13b-1.1-q4_2.bin
- GPT-4-All l13b-snoozy: ggml-gpt4all-l13b-snoozy.bin
The LLaMA models are quite large: the 7B parameter versions are around 4.2 Gb and 13B parameter 8.2 Gb each. The chat program stores the model in RAM on runtime so you need enough memory to run. You can get more details on LLaMA models from the whitepaper or META AI website.
You can also download and use an MPT model instead. Here are direct links to MPT-7B models:
- MPT-7B base model pre-trained by Mosaic ML: ggml-mpt-7b-base.bin
- MPT-7B instruct model trained by Mosaic ML: ggml-mpt-7b-instruct.bin
- Non-commercial MPT-7B chat model trained by Mosaic ML: ggml-mpt-7b-chat.bin
They're around 4.9 Gb each. The chat program stores the model in RAM on runtime so you need enough memory to run. You can get more details on MPT models from MosaicML website or mosaicml/llm-foundry github.

By default, the program prints the chat to standard (stdout) output, so if you're including the program into your app, it only needs to read stdout. You can also save the whole chat log to a text file with --save_log option. There's an elementary way to remember your past conversation by simply loading the saved chat log with --load_log option when you start a new session.
If you only need the program to run once without any user interactions, one way is to set prompt with -p "prompt" and using --no-interactive and --no-animation flags. The program will read the prompt, print the answer, and close.
If you want a personality for your AI, you can change prompt_template_sample.txt and use --load_template to load the modified file. The only constant is that your input during chat will be put on the %1 line. Instructions, prompt, response, and everything else can be replaced any way you want. Having different personality_template.txt files is an easy way to add different AI characters. With some models, giving both AI and user names instead of Prompt: and Response:, can make the conversation flow more naturally as the AI tries to mimic a conversation between two people.
You can reset the chat at any time during chatting by typing /reset in the input field. This will clear the AI's memory of past conversations, logits, and tokens. You can then start the chat from a blank slate without having to reload the whole model again.
You can also fetch parameters from a json file with --load_json "/path/to/file.json" flag. Different models might perform better or worse with different input parameters so using json files is a handy way to store and load all the settings at once. The JSON file loader is designed to be simple in order to prevent any external dependencies, and as a result, the JSON file must follow a specific format. Here is a simple example:
{"top_p": 1.0, "top_k": 50400, "temp": 0.9, "n_batch": 9}This is useful when you want to store different temperature and sampling settings.
And a more detailed one:
{
"top_p": 1.0,
"top_k": 50400,
"temp": 0.9,
"n_batch": 20,
"threads": 12,
"prompt": "Once upon a time",
"load_template": "/path/to/prompt_template_sample.txt",
"model": "/path/to/ggml-gpt4all-j-v1.3-groovy.bin",
"no-interactive": "true"
}This one loads the prompt from the json, uses a specific template, and runs the program once in no-interactive mode so user does not have to press any input.
