Any data on inference speed? I’ve found that the non quantized model was much faster on GPU than the quantized versions due to lower GPU utilization.
It's a RAM tradeoff. If you have enough GPU RAM to load the non-quantized model it may be faster.
I know it's not the main point of this, but... so many multimodal models now that take frozen vision encoders and language decoders and weld them together with a projection layer! I wanna grab the EVA02-CLIP-E image encoder and the Llama-2 33B model and do the same, I bet that'd be fun :D
Not just a projection layer but also Q-former, in this case it was already trained for that specific vision encoder but if you change it you would need to train a Q-former from scratch.
Not for mini gpt-4 but it's just a projection layer for many others(like Llava). The Qformer isn't a necessary part of the equation.
Qformer isn't necessary just to be clear. Llava is just a projection layer
I am not an ML expert. I want to know how to add my own documents without sending them off to a 3rd party.
Use a local LLM like LLaMa 2.
