This repository contains code to Fine-tuning GPT-J-6B(Quantized EleutherAI/gpt-j-6b with 8-bit weights) on colab or equivalent PC/Server GPU with your custom datasets.

It contains code originally from Hivemind's Proof-of-concept notebook for fine-tuning on colab

The model was modified and developed by Hivemind

It is complimentary to my medium post

For a tutorial on fine-tuning the original or vanilla GPT-J 6B, check out Eleuther’s guide

Create a virtualenv and install the requirements:

virtualenv venv
source venv/bin/activate
pip3 install -r requirements.txt

Then, place your training datasets (train and test) in the same directory as the script.

Run the fine-tuning code to start fine-tuning the model: python3 gpt-j-6b-8-bit.py

To start the API for inferencing, run the command below: uvicorn api:app --reload
