### Quantized EleutherAI/gpt-neo-2.7B with 8-bit weights


This is a version of [EleutherAI's GPT-Neo](https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-neo-2.7B) with 2.7 billion parameters that is modified so you can generate **and fine-tune the model in colab or equivalent desktop gpu (e.g. single 1080Ti)**. Inspired by [GPT-J 8bit](https://huggingface.co/hivemind/gpt-j-6B-8bit). 

Here's how to run it: [![colab](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/84f0493939e0c4de4e6dbe113251b4bfb5353e57134ffd9fcab6b8714514d4d1/68747470733a2f2f636f6c61622e72657365617263682e676f6f676c652e636f6d2f6173736574732f636f6c61622d62616467652e737667)](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1lMja-CPc0vm5_-gXNXAWU-9c0nom7vZ9)

## Model Description

GPT-Neo 2.7B is a transformer model designed using EleutherAI's replication of the GPT-3 architecture. GPT-Neo refers to the class of models, while 2.7B represents the number of parameters of this particular pre-trained model.
