🦥 Unsloth.ai News

  • 📣 NEW! Llama-3 8b now works! Llama-3 70b also works (just change the model name in the notebook).
  • 📣 NEW! We cut memory usage by a further 30% and now support fine-tuning of LLMs with 4x longer context windows! No change required if you're using our notebooks. To enable, simply change 1 line:
model = FastLanguageModel.get_peft_model(
    model,
    use_gradient_checkpointing = "unsloth", # <<<<<<<
)

⭐ Key Features

  • All kernels written in OpenAI's Triton language. Manual backprop engine.
  • 0% loss in accuracy - no approximation methods - all exact.
  • No change of hardware. Supports NVIDIA GPUs since 2018+. Minimum CUDA Capability 7.0 (V100, T4, Titan V, RTX 20, 30, 40x, A100, H100, L40 etc) Check your GPU! GTX 1070, 1080 works, but is slow.
  • Works on Linux and Windows via WSL.
  • Supports 4bit and 16bit QLoRA / LoRA finetuning via bitsandbytes.
  • Open source trains 5x faster - see Unsloth Pro for up to 30x faster training!
  • If you trained a model with 🦥Unsloth, you can use this cool sticker!

💾 Installation Instructions

Conda Installation

Select either pytorch-cuda=11.8 for CUDA 11.8 or pytorch-cuda=12.1 for CUDA 12.1. If you have mamba, use mamba instead of conda for faster solving. See this Github issue for help on debugging Conda installs.

conda create --name unsloth_env python=3.10
conda activate unsloth_env

conda install pytorch-cuda=<12.1/11.8> pytorch cudatoolkit xformers -c pytorch -c nvidia -c xformers

pip install "unsloth[colab-new] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"

pip install --no-deps trl peft accelerate bitsandbytes

Pip Installation

Do NOT use this if you have Anaconda. You must use the Conda install method, or else stuff will BREAK.

  1. Find your CUDA version via
import torch; torch.version.cuda
  1. For Pytorch 2.1.0: You can update Pytorch via Pip (interchange cu121 / cu118). Go to https://pytorch.org/ to learn more. Select either cu118 for CUDA 11.8 or cu121 for CUDA 12.1. If you have a RTX 3060 or higher (A100, H100 etc), use the "ampere" path. For Pytorch 2.1.1: go to step 3. For Pytorch 2.2.0: go to step 4.
pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall --no-cache-dir torch==2.1.0 triton \
  --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu121
pip install "unsloth[cu118] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install "unsloth[cu121] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install "unsloth[cu118-ampere] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install "unsloth[cu121-ampere] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
  1. For Pytorch 2.1.1: Use the "ampere" path for newer RTX 30xx GPUs or higher.
pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall --no-cache-dir torch==2.1.1 triton \
  --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu121
pip install "unsloth[cu118-torch211] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install "unsloth[cu121-torch211] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install "unsloth[cu118-ampere-torch211] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install "unsloth[cu121-ampere-torch211] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
  1. For Pytorch 2.2.0: Use the "ampere" path for newer RTX 30xx GPUs or higher.
pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall --no-cache-dir torch==2.2.0 triton \
  --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/cu121
pip install "unsloth[cu118-torch220] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install "unsloth[cu121-torch220] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install "unsloth[cu118-ampere-torch220] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install "unsloth[cu121-ampere-torch220] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
  1. If you get errors, try the below first, then go back to step 1:
pip install --upgrade pip
  1. For Pytorch 2.2.1:
# RTX 3090, 4090 Ampere GPUs:
pip install "unsloth[colab-new] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install --no-deps packaging ninja einops flash-attn xformers trl peft accelerate bitsandbytes

# Pre Ampere RTX 2080, T4, GTX 1080 GPUs:
pip install "unsloth[colab-new] @ git+https://github.com/unslothai/unsloth.git"
pip install --no-deps xformers trl peft accelerate bitsandbytes
  1. To troubleshoot installs try the below (all must succeed). Xformers should mostly all be available.
nvcc
python -m xformers.info
python -m bitsandbytes
