Thanks, and how to contribute.

Thanks to the chirper.ai team!

I've had a lot of people ask if they can contribute. I enjoy providing models and helping people, and would love to be able to spend even more time doing it, as well as expanding into new projects like fine tuning/training.

If you're able and willing to contribute it will be most gratefully received and will help me to keep providing more models, and to start work on new AI projects.

Donaters will get priority support on any and all AI/LLM/model questions and requests, access to a private Discord room, plus other benefits.

Special thanks to : Luke from CarbonQuill, Aemon Algiz, Dmitriy Samsonov.

  • Model Summary

    StarCoderPlus is a fine-tuned version of StarCoderBase on 600B tokens from the English web dataset RedefinedWeb combined with StarCoderData from The Stack (v1.2) and a Wikipedia dataset. It's a 15.5B parameter Language Model trained on English and 80+ programming languages. The model uses Multi Query Attention , a context window of 8192 tokens , and was trained using the Fill-in-the-Middle objective on 1.6 trillion tokens.

    Use

    Intended use

    The model was trained on English and GitHub code. As such it is not an instruction model and commands like "Write a function that computes the square root." do not work well. However, the instruction-tuned version in StarChat makes a capable assistant.

    Generation

    # pip install -q transformers
    from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
    
    checkpoint = "bigcode/starcoderplus"
    device = "cuda" # for GPU usage or "cpu" for CPU usage
    
    tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(checkpoint)
    model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(checkpoint).to(device)
    
    inputs = tokenizer.encode("def print_hello_world():", return_tensors="pt").to(device)
    outputs = model.generate(inputs)
    print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
    

    Fill-in-the-middle

    Fill-in-the-middle uses special tokens to identify the prefix/middle/suffix part of the input and output:

    input_text = "<fim_prefix>def print_hello_world():\n    <fim_suffix>\n    print('Hello world!')<fim_middle>"
    inputs = tokenizer.encode(input_text, return_tensors="pt").to(device)
    outputs = model.generate(inputs)
    print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0]))
    

    Attribution & Other Requirements

    The training code dataset of the model was filtered for permissive licenses only. Nevertheless, the model can generate source code verbatim from the dataset. The code's license might require attribution and/or other specific requirements that must be respected. We provide a search index that let's you search through the pretraining data to identify where generated code came from and apply the proper attribution to your code.

    Limitations

    The model has been trained on a mixture of English text from the web and GitHub code. Therefore it might encounter limitations when working with non-English text, and can carry the stereotypes and biases commonly encountered online. Additionally, the generated code should be used with caution as it may contain errors, inefficiencies, or potential vulnerabilities. For a more comprehensive understanding of the base model's code limitations, please refer to See StarCoder paper .
