# Train OPT model with Colossal-AI
## OPT
Meta recently released [Open Pretrained Transformer (OPT)](https://github.com/facebookresearch/metaseq), a 175-Billion parameter AI language model, which stimulates AI programmers to perform various downstream tasks and application deployments.
The following example of [Colossal-AI](https://github.com/hpcaitech/ColossalAI) demonstrates fine-tuning causal Language Modelling at low cost.
We are using the pre-training weights of the OPT model provided by Hugging Face Hub on the raw WikiText-2 (no tokens were replaced before
the tokenization). This training script is adapted from the [HuggingFace Language Modelling examples](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/main/examples/pytorch/language-modeling).
## Our Modifications
We adapt the OPT training code to ColossalAI by leveraging Gemini and ZeRO DDP.
## 🚀Quick Start for Tutorial
1. Install the dependency
```bash
pip install datasets accelerate
```
2. Run finetuning with synthetic datasets with one GPU
```bash
bash ./run_clm_synthetic.sh
```
3. Run finetuning with 4 GPUs
```bash
bash ./run_clm_synthetic.sh 16 0 125m 4
```
## Quick Start for Practical Use
You can launch training by using the following bash script
```bash
bash ./run_clm.sh <batch-size-per-gpu> <mem-cap> <model> <gpu-num>
```
- batch-size-per-gpu: number of samples fed to each GPU, default is 16
- mem-cap: limit memory usage within a value in GB, default is 0 (no limit)
- model: the size of the OPT model, default is `6.7b`. Acceptable values include `125m`, `350m`, `1.3b`, `2.7b`, `6.7`, `13b`, `30b`, `66b`. For `175b`, you can request
the pretrained weights from [OPT weight downloading page](https://github.com/facebookresearch/metaseq/tree/main/projects/OPT).
- gpu-num: the number of GPUs to use, default is 1.
It uses `wikitext` dataset.
To use synthetic dataset:
```bash
bash ./run_clm_synthetic.sh <batch-size-per-gpu> <mem-cap> <model> <gpu-num>
```
## Remarkable Performance
On a single GPU, Colossal-AIs automatic strategy provides remarkable performance gains from the ZeRO Offloading strategy by Microsoft DeepSpeed.
Users can experience up to a 40% speedup, at a variety of model scales. However, when using a traditional deep learning training framework like PyTorch, a single GPU can no longer support the training of models at such a scale.

</p>
Adopting the distributed training strategy with 8 GPUs is as simple as adding a `-nprocs 8` to the training command of Colossal-AI!
More details about behind the scenes can be found on the corresponding [blog](https://medium.com/@yangyou_berkeley/colossal-ai-seamlessly-accelerates-large-models-at-low-costs-with-hugging-face-4d1a887e500d),
and a detailed tutorial will be added in [Documentation](https://www.colossalai.org/docs/get_started/installation) very soon.
