+
44
+ Summary description and brief definition of inputs and outputs.
45
+
46
+ ### Description
47
+
48
+ Gemma is a family of lightweight, state-of-the-art open models from Google,
49
+ built from the same research and technology used to create the Gemini models.
50
+ They are text-to-text, decoder-only large language models, available in English,
51
+ with open weights, pre-trained variants, and instruction-tuned variants. Gemma
52
+ models are well-suited for a variety of text generation tasks, including
53
+ question answering, summarization, and reasoning. Their relatively small size
54
+ makes it possible to deploy them in environments with limited resources such as
55
+ a laptop, desktop or your own cloud infrastructure, democratizing access to
56
+ state of the art AI models and helping foster innovation for everyone.
57
+
58
+ ### Usage
59
+
60
+ Below we share some code snippets on how to get quickly started with running the model. First make sure to `pip install -U transformers`, then copy the snippet from the section that is relevant for your usecase.
61
+
62
+
63
+ #### Fine-tuning the model
64
+
65
+ You can find fine-tuning scripts and notebook under the [`examples/` directory](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-7b/tree/main/examples) of [`google/gemma-7b`](https://huggingface.co/google/gemma-7b) repository. To adapt it to this model, simply change the model-id to `google/gemma-2b`.
66
+ In that repository, we provide:
67
+
68
+ * A script to perform Supervised Fine-Tuning (SFT) on UltraChat dataset using QLoRA
69
+ * A script to perform SFT using FSDP on TPU devices
70
+ * A notebook that you can run on a free-tier Google Colab instance to perform SFT on English quotes dataset
71
+
72
+
73
+
74
+ #### Running the model on a CPU
75
+
76
+
77
+ ```python
78
+ from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
79
+
80
+ tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b")
81
+ model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b")
82
+
83
+ input_text = "Write me a poem about Machine Learning."
84
+ input_ids = tokenizer(**input_text, return_tensors="pt")
85
+
86
+ outputs = model.generate(input_ids)
87
+ print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
88
+ ```
89
+
90
+
91
+ #### Running the model on a single / multi GPU
92
+
93
+
94
+ ```python
95
+ # pip install accelerate
96
+ from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
97
+
98
+ tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b")
99
+ model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b", device_map="auto")
100
+
101
+ input_text = "Write me a poem about Machine Learning."
102
+ input_ids = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
103
+
104
+ outputs = model.generate(**input_ids)
105
+ print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
106
+ ```
107
+
108
+
109
+ #### Running the model on a GPU using different precisions
110
+
111
+ * _Using `torch.float16`_
112
+
113
+ ```python
114
+ # pip install accelerate
115
+ from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
116
+
117

118
+ model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b", device_map="auto", torch_dtype=torch.float16)
119
+
120
+ input_text = "Write me a poem about Machine Learning."
121
+ input_ids = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
122
+
123
+ outputs = model.generate(**input_ids)
124
+ print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
125
+ ```
126
+
127
+ * _Using `torch.bfloat16`_
128
+
129

131
+ from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM
132
+
133
+ tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b")
134
+ model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b", device_map="auto", torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16)
135
+
136
+ input_text = "Write me a poem about Machine Learning."
137
+ input_ids = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
138
+
139
+ outputs = model.generate(**input_ids)
140
+ print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
141
+ ```
142
+
143
+ #### Quantized Versions through `bitsandbytes`
144
+
145
+ * _Using 8-bit precision (int8)_
146
+
147
+ ```python
148
+ # pip install bitsandbytes accelerate
149
+ from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM, BitsAndBytesConfig
150
+
151
+ quantization_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(load_in_8bit=True)
152
+
153
+ tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b")
154
+ model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b", quantization_config=quantization_config)
155
+
156
+ input_text = "Write me a poem about Machine Learning."
157
+ input_ids = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
158
+
159
+ outputs = model.generate(**input_ids)
160
+ print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
161
+ ```
162
+
163
+ * _Using 4-bit precision_
164
+
165
+ ```python
166
+ # pip install bitsandbytes accelerate
167
+ from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM, BitsAndBytesConfig
168
+
169
+ quantization_config = BitsAndBytesConfig(load_in_4bit=True)
170
+
171
+ tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b")
172
+ model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("google/gemma-2b", quantization_config=quantization_config)
173
+
174
+ input_text = "Write me a poem about Machine Learning."
175
+ input_ids = tokenizer(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to("cuda")
176
+
177
+ outputs = model.generate(**input_ids)
178
+ print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
179
+ ```
180
+
181
+
182
+ #### Other optimizations
183
+
184
+ * _Flash Attention 2_
185
+
186
+ First make sure to install `flash-attn` in your environment `pip install flash-attn`
187
+
188
+ ```diff
189
+ model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(
190
+ model_id,
191
+ torch_dtype=torch.float16,
192
+ + attn_implementation="flash_attention_2"
193
+ ).to(0)
194
+ ```
195
+
196
+ ### Inputs and outputs
197
+
198
+ * **Input:** Text string, such as a question, a prompt, or a document to be
199
+ summarized.
200
+ * **Output:** Generated English-language text in response to the input, such
201
+ as an answer to a question, or a summary of a document.
202
+
203
+ ## Model Data
204
+
205
+ Data used for model training and how the data was processed.
206
+
207
+ ### Training Dataset
208
+
209
+ These models were trained on a dataset of text data that includes a wide variety
210
+ of sources, totaling 6 trillion tokens. Here are the key components:
211
+
212
+ * Web Documents: A diverse collection of web text ensures the model is exposed
213
+ to a broad range of linguistic styles, topics, and vocabulary. Primarily
214
+ English-language content.
215
+ * Code: Exposing the model to code helps it to learn the syntax and patterns of
216
+ programming languages, which improves its ability to generate code or
217
+ understand code-related questions.
218
+ * Mathematics: Training on mathematical text helps the model learn logical
219
+ reasoning, symbolic representation, and to address mathematical queries.
220
+
221
+ The combination of these diverse data sources is crucial for training a powerful
222
+ language model that can handle a wide variety of different tasks and text
223
+ formats.
224
+
225
+ ### Data Preprocessing
226
+
227
+ Here are the key data cleaning and filtering methods applied to the training
228
+ data:
229
+
230
+ * CSAM Filtering: Rigorous CSAM (Child Sexual Abuse Material) filtering was
231
+ applied at multiple stages in the data preparation process to ensure the
232
+ exclusion of harmful and illegal content
233
+ * Sensitive Data Filtering: As part of making Gemma pre-trained models safe and
234
+ reliable, automated techniques were used to filter out certain personal
235
+ information and other sensitive data from training sets.
236
+ * Additional methods: Filtering based on content quality and safely in line with
237
+ [our policies](https://storage.googleapis.com/gweb-uniblog-publish-prod/documents/2023_Google_AI_Principles_Progress_Update.pdf#page=11).
238
+
239
+ ## Implementation Information
240
+
241
+ Details about the model internals.
242
+
243
+ ### Hardware
244
+
245
+ Gemma was trained using the latest generation of
246
+ [Tensor Processing Unit (TPU)](https://cloud.google.com/tpu/docs/intro-to-tpu) hardware (TPUv5e).
247
+
248
+ Training large language models requires significant computational power. TPUs,
249
+ designed specifically for matrix operations common in machine learning, offer
250
+ several advantages in this domain:
251
+
252
+ * Performance: TPUs are specifically designed to handle the massive computations
253
+ involved in training LLMs. They can speed up training considerably compared to
254
+ CPUs.
255
+ * Memory: TPUs often come with large amounts of high-bandwidth memory, allowing
256
+ for the handling of large models and batch sizes during training. This can
257
+ lead to better model quality.
258
+ * Scalability: TPU Pods (large clusters of TPUs) provide a scalable solution for
259
+ handling the growing complexity of large foundation models. You can distribute
260
+ training across multiple TPU devices for faster and more efficient processing.
261
+ * Cost-effectiveness: In many scenarios, TPUs can provide a more cost-effective
262
+ solution for training large models compared to CPU-based infrastructure,
263
+ especially when considering the time and resources saved due to faster
264
+ training.
265
+ * These advantages are aligned with
266
+ [Google's commitments to operate sustainably](https://sustainability.google/operating-sustainably/).
267
+
268
+ ### Software
269
+
270
+ Training was done using [JAX](https://github.com/google/jax) and [ML Pathways](https://blog.google/technology/ai/introducing-pathways-next-generation-ai-architecture/ml-pathways).
271
+
272
+ JAX allows researchers to take advantage of the latest generation of hardware,
273
+ including TPUs, for faster and more efficient training of large models.
274
+
275
+ ML Pathways is Google's latest effort to build artificially intelligent systems
276
+ capable of generalizing across multiple tasks. This is specially suitable for
277
+ [foundation models](https://ai.google/discover/foundation-models/), including large language models like
278
+ these ones.
279
+
280
+ Together, JAX and ML Pathways are used as described in the
281
+ [paper about the Gemini family of models](https://arxiv.org/abs/2312.11805); "the 'single
282
+ controller' programming model of Jax and Pathways allows a single Python
283
+ process to orchestrate the entire training run, dramatically simplifying the
284
+ development workflow."

319
+
320
+ Ethics and safety evaluation approach and results.
321
+
322
+ ### Evaluation Approach
323
+
324
+ Our evaluation methods include structured evaluations and internal red-teaming
325
+ testing of relevant content policies. Red-teaming was conducted by a number of
326
+ different teams, each with different goals and human evaluation metrics. These
327
+ models were evaluated against a number of different categories relevant to
328
+ ethics and safety, including:
329
+
330
+ * Text-to-Text Content Safety: Human evaluation on prompts covering safety
331
+ policies including child sexual abuse and exploitation, harassment, violence
332
+ and gore, and hate speech.
333
+ * Text-to-Text Representational Harms: Benchmark against relevant academic
334
+ datasets such as [WinoBias](https://arxiv.org/abs/1804.06876) and [BBQ Dataset](https://arxiv.org/abs/2110.08193v2).
335
+ * Memorization: Automated evaluation of memorization of training data, including
336
+ the risk of personally identifiable information exposure.
337
+ * Large-scale harm: Tests for "dangerous capabilities," such as chemical,
338
+ biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) risks.
339
+
340
+ ### Evaluation Results
341
+
342
+ The results of ethics and safety evaluations are within acceptable thresholds
343
+ for meeting [internal policies](https://storage.googleapis.com/gweb-uniblog-publish-prod/documents/2023_Google_AI_Principles_Progress_Update.pdf#page=11) for categories such as child
344
+ safety, content safety, representational harms, memorization, large-scale harms.
345
+ On top of robust internal evaluations, the results of well known safety
346
+ benchmarks like BBQ, BOLD, Winogender, Winobias, RealToxicity, and TruthfulQA
347
+ are shown here.

364
+ ## Usage and Limitations
365
+
366
+ These models have certain limitations that users should be aware of.
367
+
368
+ ### Intended Usage
369
+
370
+ Open Large Language Models (LLMs) have a wide range of applications across
371
+ various industries and domains. The following list of potential uses is not
372
+ comprehensive. The purpose of this list is to provide contextual information
373
+ about the possible use-cases that the model creators considered as part of model
374
+ training and development.
375
+
376
+ * Content Creation and Communication
377
+ * Text Generation: These models can be used to generate creative text formats
378
+ such as poems, scripts, code, marketing copy, and email drafts.
379
+ * Chatbots and Conversational AI: Power conversational interfaces for customer
380
+ service, virtual assistants, or interactive applications.
381
+ * Text Summarization: Generate concise summaries of a text corpus, research
382
+ papers, or reports.
383
+ * Research and Education
384
+ * Natural Language Processing (NLP) Research: These models can serve as a
385
+ foundation for researchers to experiment with NLP techniques, develop
386
+ algorithms, and contribute to the advancement of the field.
387
+ * Language Learning Tools: Support interactive language learning experiences,
388
+ aiding in grammar correction or providing writing practice.
389
+ * Knowledge Exploration: Assist researchers in exploring large bodies of text
390
+ by generating summaries or answering questions about specific topics.
391
+
392
+ ### Limitations
393
+
394
+ * Training Data
395
+ * The quality and diversity of the training data significantly influence the
396
+ model's capabilities. Biases or gaps in the training data can lead to
397
+ limitations in the model's responses.
398
+ * The scope of the training dataset determines the subject areas the model can
399
+ handle effectively.
400
+ * Context and Task Complexity
401
+ * LLMs are better at tasks that can be framed with clear prompts and
402
+ instructions. Open-ended or highly complex tasks might be challenging.
403
+ * A model's performance can be influenced by the amount of context provided
404
+ (longer context generally leads to better outputs, up to a certain point).
405
+ * Language Ambiguity and Nuance
406
+ * Natural language is inherently complex. LLMs might struggle to grasp subtle
407
+ nuances, sarcasm, or figurative language.
408
+ * Factual Accuracy
409
+ * LLMs generate responses based on information they learned from their
410
+ training datasets, but they are not knowledge bases. They may generate
411
+ incorrect or outdated factual statements.
412
+ * Common Sense
413
+ * LLMs rely on statistical patterns in language. They might lack the ability
414
+ to apply common sense reasoning in certain situations.
415
+
416
+ ### Ethical Considerations and Risks
417
+
418
+ The development of large language models (LLMs) raises several ethical concerns.
419
+ In creating an open model, we have carefully considered the following:
420
+
421
+ * Bias and Fairness
422
+ * LLMs trained on large-scale, real-world text data can reflect socio-cultural
423
+ biases embedded in the training material. These models underwent careful
424
+ scrutiny, input data pre-processing described and posterior evaluations
425
+ reported in this card.
426
+ * Misinformation and Misuse
427
+ * LLMs can be misused to generate text that is false, misleading, or harmful.
428
+ * Guidelines are provided for responsible use with the model, see the
429
+ [Responsible Generative AI Toolkit](http://ai.google.dev/gemma/responsible).
430
+ * Transparency and Accountability:
431
+ * This model card summarizes details on the models' architecture,
432
+ capabilities, limitations, and evaluation processes.
433
+ * A responsibly developed open model offers the opportunity to share
434
+ innovation by making LLM technology accessible to developers and researchers
435
+ across the AI ecosystem.
436
+
437
+ Risks identified and mitigations:
438
+
439
+ * Perpetuation of biases: It's encouraged to perform continuous monitoring
440
+ (using evaluation metrics, human review) and the exploration of de-biasing
441
+ techniques during model training, fine-tuning, and other use cases.
442
+ * Generation of harmful content: Mechanisms and guidelines for content safety
443
+ are essential. Developers are encouraged to exercise caution and implement
444
+ appropriate content safety safeguards based on their specific product policies
445
+ and application use cases.
446
+ * Misuse for malicious purposes: Technical limitations and developer and
447
+ end-user education can help mitigate against malicious applications of LLMs.
448
+ Educational resources and reporting mechanisms for users to flag misuse are
449
+ provided. Prohibited uses of Gemma models are outlined in the
450
+ [Gemma Prohibited Use Policy](https://ai.google.dev/gemma/prohibited_use_policy).
451
+ * Privacy violations: Models were trained on data filtered for removal of PII
452
+ (Personally Identifiable Information). Developers are encouraged to adhere to
453
+ privacy regulations with privacy-preserving techniques.
454
+
455
+ ### Benefits
456
+
457
+ At the time of release, this family of models provides high-performance open
458
+ large language model implementations designed from the ground up for Responsible
459
+ AI development compared to similarly sized models.
460
+
461
+ Using the benchmark evaluation metrics described in this document, these models
462
+ have shown to provide superior performance to other, comparably-sized open model
463
+ alternatives.
