In this tutorial, we demonstrate how to efficiently fine-tune the Llama-2 7B Chat model for Python code generation using advanced techniques such as QLoRA, gradient checkpointing, and supervised fine-tuning with the SFTTrainer. Leveraging the Alpaca-14k dataset, we walk through setting up the environment, configuring LoRA parameters, and applying memory optimization strategies to train a model that excels in generating high-quality Python code. This step-by-step guide is designed for practitioners seeking to harness the power of LLMs with minimal computational overhead.

!pip install -q transformers
!pip install -q trlFirst, install the required libraries for our project. They include accelerate, peft, transformers, and trl from the Python Package Index. The -q flag (quiet mode) keeps the output minimal.

Set additional SFT parameters and load our dataset and tokenizer. We configure padding tokens for the tokenizer and load the base model with 8-bit quantization. Finally, we enable gradient checkpointing and ensure the model requires input gradients for training.

Configure and apply LoRA to our model using `LoraConfig` and `get_peft_model`. We then create `TrainingArguments` for model training, specifying epoch counts, batch sizes, and optimization settings. Lastly, we set up the `SFTTrainer`, passing it the model, dataset, tokenizer, and training arguments.
# Train model
trainer.train()
# Save trained model
trainer.model.save_pretrained(new_model)
Initiate the supervised fine-tuning process (`trainer.train()`) and then save the trained LoRA model to the specified directory.

prompt = "How can I write a Python program that calculates the mean, standard deviation, and coefficient of variation of a dataset from a CSV file?"
pipe = pipeline(task="text-generation", model=trainer.model, tokenizer=tokenizer, max_length=400)
result = pipe(f"<s>[INST] {prompt} [/INST]")
print(result[0]['generated_text'])Create a text generation pipeline using our fine-tuned model and tokenizer. Then, we provide a prompt, generate text using the pipeline, and print the output.

else:
print("cuda:1 is not available.")We import PyTorch and check the number of GPUs detected. Then, we print the count and conditionally report whether the GPU with ID 1 is available.
