+![nanoGPT](assets/nanogpt.jpg)
+
+The simplest, fastest repository for training/finetuning medium-sized GPTs. It is a rewrite of [minGPT](https://github.com/karpathy/minGPT) that prioritizes teeth over education. Still under active development, but currently the file `train.py` reproduces GPT-2 (124M) on OpenWebText, running on a single 8XA100 40GB node in about 4 days of training. The code itself is plain and readable: `train.py` is a ~300-line boilerplate training loop and `model.py` a ~300-line GPT model definition, which can optionally load the GPT-2 weights from OpenAI. That's it.
+
+![repro124m](assets/gpt2_124M_loss.png)
+
+Because the code is so simple, it is very easy to hack to your needs, train new models from scratch, or finetune pretrained checkpoints (e.g. biggest one currently available as a starting point would be the GPT-2 1.3B model from OpenAI).
+

+-  `tiktoken` for OpenAI's fast BPE code <3
+-  `wandb` for optional logging <3
+-  `tqdm` for progress bars <3
+
+## quick start
+
+If you are not a deep learning professional and you just want to feel the magic and get your feet wet, the fastest way to get started is to train a character-level GPT on the works of Shakespeare. First, we download it as a single (1MB) file and turn it from raw text into one large stream of integers:
+
+```sh
+python data/shakespeare_char/prepare.py
+```
+
+This creates a `train.bin` and `val.bin` in that data directory. Now it is time to train your GPT. The size of it very much depends on the computational resources of your system:
+
+**I have a GPU**. Great, we can quickly train a baby GPT with the settings provided in the [config/train_shakespeare_char.py](config/train_shakespeare_char.py) config file:
+
+```sh
+python train.py config/train_shakespeare_char.py
+```
+
+If you peek inside it, you'll see that we're training a GPT with a context size of up to 256 characters, 384 feature channels, and it is a 6-layer Transformer with 6 heads in each layer. On one A100 GPU this training run takes about 3 minutes and the best validation loss is 1.4697. Based on the configuration, the model checkpoints are being written into the `--out_dir` directory `out-shakespeare-char`. So once the training finishes we can sample from the best model by pointing the sampling script at this directory:
+
+```sh
+python sample.py --out_dir=out-shakespeare-char
+```
+
+This generates a few samples, for example:
+
+```
+ANGELO:
+And cowards it be strawn to my bed,
+And thrust the gates of my threats,
+Because he that ale away, and hang'd
+An one with him.
+
+DUKE VINCENTIO:
+I thank your eyes against it.
+
+DUKE VINCENTIO:
+Then will answer him to save the malm:
+And what have you tyrannous shall do this?
+
+DUKE VINCENTIO:
+If you have done evils of all disposition
+To end his power, the day of thrust for a common men
+That I leave, to fight with over-liking
+Hasting in a roseman.
+```
+
+lol  `¯\_(ツ)_/¯`. Not bad for a character-level model after 3 minutes of training on a GPU. Better results are quite likely obtainable by instead finetuning a pretrained GPT-2 model on this dataset (see finetuning section later).
+
+**I only have a macbook** (or other cheap computer). No worries, we can still train a GPT but we want to dial things down a notch. I recommend getting the bleeding edge PyTorch nightly ([select it here](https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/) when installing) as it is currently quite likely to make your code more efficient. But even without it, a simple train run could look as follows:
+
+```sh
+python train.py config/train_shakespeare_char.py --device=cpu --compile=False --eval_iters=20 --log_interval=1 --block_size=64 --batch_size=12 --n_layer=4 --n_head=4 --n_embd=128 --max_iters=2000 --lr_decay_iters=2000 --dropout=0.0
+```
+
+Here, since we are running on CPU instead of GPU we must set both `--device=cpu` and also turn off PyTorch 2.0 compile with `--compile=False`. Then when we evaluate we get a bit more noisy but faster estimate (`--eval_iters=20`, down from 200), our context size is only 64 characters instead of 256, and the batch size only 12 examples per iteration, not 64. We'll also use a much smaller Transformer (4 layers, 4 heads, 128 embedding size), and decrease the number of iterations to 2000 (and correspondingly usually decay the learning rate to around max_iters with `--lr_decay_iters`). Because our network is so small we also ease down on regularization (`--dropout=0.0`). This still runs in about ~3 minutes, but gets us a loss of only 1.88 and therefore also worse samples, but it's still good fun:
+
+```sh
+python sample.py --out_dir=out-shakespeare-char --device=cpu
+```
+Generates samples like this:
+
+```
+GLEORKEN VINGHARD III:
+Whell's the couse, the came light gacks,
+And the for mought you in Aut fries the not high shee
+bot thou the sought bechive in that to doth groan you,
+No relving thee post mose the wear
+```
+
+Not bad for ~3 minutes on a CPU, for a hint of the right character gestalt. If you're willing to wait longer, feel free to tune the hyperparameters, increase the size of the network, the context length (`--block_size`), the length of training, etc.
+
+Finally, on Apple Silicon Macbooks and with a recent PyTorch version make sure to add `--device=mps` (short for "Metal Performance Shaders"); PyTorch then uses the on-chip GPU that can *significantly* accelerate training (2-3X) and allow you to use larger networks. See [Issue 28](https://github.com/karpathy/nanoGPT/issues/28) for more.
+
+
+
+
+## reproducing GPT-2
+
+A more serious deep learning professional may be more interested in reproducing GPT-2 results. So here we go - we first tokenize the dataset, in this case the [OpenWebText](https://openwebtext2.readthedocs.io/en/latest/), an open reproduction of OpenAI's (private) WebText:
+
+```sh
+python data/openwebtext/prepare.py
+```
+
+This downloads and tokenizes the [OpenWebText](https://huggingface.co/datasets/openwebtext) dataset. It will create a `train.bin` and `val.bin` which holds the GPT2 BPE token ids in one sequence, stored as raw uint16 bytes. Then we're ready to kick off training. To reproduce GPT-2 (124M) you'll want at least an 8X A100 40GB node and run:
+
+```sh
+torchrun --standalone --nproc_per_node=8 train.py config/train_gpt2.py
+```
+
+This will run for about 4 days using PyTorch Distributed Data Parallel (DDP) and go down to loss of ~2.85. Now, a GPT-2 model just evaluated on OWT gets a val loss of about 3.11, but if you finetune it it will come down to ~2.85 territory (due to an apparent domain gap), making the two models ~match.
+
+If you're in a cluster environment and you are blessed with multiple GPU nodes you can make GPU go brrrr e.g. across 2 nodes like:
+
+```sh
+# Run on the first (master) node with example IP 123.456.123.456:
+torchrun --nproc_per_node=8 --nnodes=2 --node_rank=0 --master_addr=123.456.123.456 --master_port=1234 train.py
+# Run on the worker node:
+torchrun --nproc_per_node=8 --nnodes=2 --node_rank=1 --master_addr=123.456.123.456 --master_port=1234 train.py
+```
+
+It is a good idea to benchmark your interconnect (e.g. iperf3). In particular, if you don't have Infiniband then also prepend `NCCL_IB_DISABLE=1` to the above launches. Your multinode training will work, but most likely _crawl_. By default checkpoints are periodically written to the `--out_dir`. We can sample from the model by simply `python sample.py`.
+
+Finally, to train on a single GPU simply run the `python train.py` script. Have a look at all of its args, the script tries to be very readable, hackable and transparent. You'll most likely want to tune a number of those variables depending on your needs.
+
+## baselines
+
+OpenAI GPT-2 checkpoints allow us to get some baselines in place for openwebtext. We can get the numbers as follows:
+
+```sh
+$ python train.py config/eval_gpt2.py
+$ python train.py config/eval_gpt2_medium.py
+$ python train.py config/eval_gpt2_large.py
+$ python train.py config/eval_gpt2_xl.py
+```
+
+and observe the following losses on train and val:
+
+| model | params | train loss | val loss |
+| ------| ------ | ---------- | -------- |
+| gpt2 | 124M         | 3.11  | 3.12     |
+| gpt2-medium | 350M  | 2.85  | 2.84     |
+| gpt2-large | 774M   | 2.66  | 2.67     |
+| gpt2-xl | 1558M     | 2.56  | 2.54     |
+
+However, we have to note that GPT-2 was trained on (closed, never released) WebText, while OpenWebText is just a best-effort open reproduction of this dataset. This means there is a dataset domain gap. Indeed, taking the GPT-2 (124M) checkpoint and finetuning on OWT directly for a while reaches loss down to ~2.85. This then becomes the more appropriate baseline w.r.t. reproduction.
+
+## finetuning
+
+Finetuning is no different than training, we just make sure to initialize from a pretrained model and train with a smaller learning rate. For an example of how to finetune a GPT on new text go to `data/shakespeare` and run `prepare.py` to download the tiny shakespeare dataset and render it into a `train.bin` and `val.bin`, using the OpenAI BPE tokenizer from GPT-2. Unlike OpenWebText this will run in seconds. Finetuning can take very little time, e.g. on a single GPU just a few minutes. Run an example finetuning like:
+
+```sh
+python train.py config/finetune_shakespeare.py
+```
+
+This will load the config parameter overrides in `config/finetune_shakespeare.py` (I didn't tune them much though). Basically, we initialize from a GPT2 checkpoint with `init_from` and train as normal, except shorter and with a small learning rate. If you're running out of memory try decreasing the model size (they are `{'gpt2', 'gpt2-medium', 'gpt2-large', 'gpt2-xl'}`) or possibly decreasing the `block_size` (context length). The best checkpoint (lowest validation loss) will be in the `out_dir` directory, e.g. in `out-shakespeare` by default, per the config file. You can then run the code in `sample.py --out_dir=out-shakespeare`:
+
+```
+THEODORE:
+Thou shalt sell me to the highest bidder: if I die,
+I sell thee to the first; if I go mad,
+I sell thee to the second; if I
+lie, I sell thee to the third; if I slay,
+I sell thee to the fourth: so buy or sell,
+I tell thee again, thou shalt not sell my
+possession.
+
+JULIET:
+And if thou steal, thou shalt not sell thyself.
+
+THEODORE:
+I do not steal; I sell the stolen goods.
+
+THEODORE:
+Thou know'st not what thou sell'st; thou, a woman,
+Thou art ever a victim, a thing of no worth:
+Thou hast no right, no right, but to be sold.
+```
+
+Whoa there, GPT, entering some dark place over there. I didn't really tune the hyperparameters in the config too much, feel free to try!
+
+## sampling / inference
+
+Use the script `sample.py` to sample either from pre-trained GPT-2 models released by OpenAI, or from a model you trained yourself. For example, here is a way to sample from the largest available `gpt2-xl` model:
+
+```sh
+python sample.py \
+    --init_from=gpt2-xl \
+    --start="What is the answer to life, the universe, and everything?" \
+    --num_samples=5 --max_new_tokens=100
+```
+
+If you'd like to sample from a model you trained, use the `--out_dir` to point the code appropriately. You can also prompt the model with some text from a file, e.g. ```python sample.py --start=FILE:prompt.txt```.
+
+## efficiency notes
+
+For simple model benchmarking and profiling, `bench.py` might be useful. It's identical to what happens in the meat of the training loop of `train.py`, but omits much of the other complexities.
+
+Note that the code by default uses [PyTorch 2.0](https://pytorch.org/get-started/pytorch-2.0/). At the time of writing (Dec 29, 2022) this makes `torch.compile()` available in the nightly release. The improvement from the one line of code is noticeable, e.g. cutting down iteration time from ~250ms / iter to 135ms / iter. Nice work PyTorch team!
+
+## todos
+
+- Investigate and add FSDP instead of DDP
+- Eval zero-shot perplexities on standard evals (e.g. LAMBADA? HELM? etc.)
+- Finetune the finetuning script, I think the hyperparams are not great
+- Schedule for linear batch size increase during training
+- Incorporate other embeddings (rotary, alibi)
+- Separate out the optim buffers from model params in checkpoints I think
+- Additional logging around network health (e.g. gradient clip events, magnitudes)
+- Few more investigations around better init etc.
+
+## troubleshooting
+
+Note that by default this repo uses PyTorch 2.0 (i.e. `torch.compile`). This is fairly new and experimental, and not yet available on all platforms (e.g. Windows). If you're running into related error messages try to disable this by adding `--compile=False` flag. This will slow down the code but at least it will run.
+
+For some context on this repository, GPT, and language modeling it might be helpful to watch my [Zero To Hero series](https://karpathy.ai/zero-to-hero.html). Specifically, the [GPT video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCc8FmEb1nY) is popular if you have some prior language modeling context.

-Use the script `sample.py` to sample either from pre-trained GPT-2 models released by OpenAI, or from a model you trained yourself. For example, here is a way to sample from the largest available `gpt2-xl` model:
-
-```sh
-python sample.py \
-    --init_from=gpt2-xl \
-    --start="What is the answer to life, the universe, and everything?" \
-    --num_samples=5 --max_new_tokens=100
-```
-
-If you'd like to sample from a model you trained, use the `--out_dir` to point the code appropriately. You can also prompt the model with some text from a file, e.g. ```python sample.py --start=FILE:prompt.txt```.
-
-## efficiency notes
-
-For simple model benchmarking and profiling, `bench.py` might be useful. It's identical to what happens in the meat of the training loop of `train.py`, but omits much of the other complexities.
-
-Note that the code by default uses [PyTorch 2.0](https://pytorch.org/get-started/pytorch-2.0/). At the time of writing (Dec 29, 2022) this makes `torch.compile()` available in the nightly release. The improvement from the one line of code is noticeable, e.g. cutting down iteration time from ~250ms / iter to 135ms / iter. Nice work PyTorch team!

-## todos
-
-- Investigate and add FSDP instead of DDP
-- Eval zero-shot perplexities on standard evals (e.g. LAMBADA? HELM? etc.)
-- Finetune the finetuning script, I think the hyperparams are not great
-- Schedule for linear batch size increase during training
-- Incorporate other embeddings (rotary, alibi)
-- Separate out the optim buffers from model params in checkpoints I think
-- Additional logging around network health (e.g. gradient clip events, magnitudes)
-- Few more investigations around better init etc.

-## troubleshooting
-
-Note that by default this repo uses PyTorch 2.0 (i.e. `torch.compile`). This is fairly new and experimental, and not yet available on all platforms (e.g. Windows). If you're running into related error messages try to disable this by adding `--compile=False` flag. This will slow down the code but at least it will run.

-For some context on this repository, GPT, and language modeling it might be helpful to watch my [Zero To Hero series](https://karpathy.ai/zero-to-hero.html). Specifically, the [GPT video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCc8FmEb1nY) is popular if you have some prior language modeling context.
