Libraries

How to use DESUCLUB/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-bf16-quantized.w8a8 with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="DESUCLUB/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-bf16-quantized.w8a8")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("DESUCLUB/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-bf16-quantized.w8a8")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("DESUCLUB/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-bf16-quantized.w8a8")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

DESUCLUB/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-bf16-quantized.w8a8

This is a custom W8A16 quantized version of meta-llama/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct.

Quantization Details

Method: Custom W8A16 (8-bit weights, 16-bit activations)
Weight precision: INT8
Scale precision: BF16
Quantization: Symmetric per-channel
Zero points: None (symmetric)

Model Structure

The quantized model contains:

.weight: INT8 quantized weights
.weight_scale: BF16 scale parameters (trainable)
Standard embedding and normalization layers in original precision

Usage

from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer

# Note: This requires custom quantization code to load properly
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("DESUCLUB/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-bf16-quantized.w8a8")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("DESUCLUB/Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct-bf16-quantized.w8a8")
