Training Foundation Models on a Full-Stack AMD Platform: Compute, Networking, and System Design
Quentin Anthony, Yury Tokpanov, Skyler Szot +18
We report on the first large-scale mixture-of-experts (MoE) pretraining study on pure AMD hardware, utilizing both MI300X GPUs and Pollara networking. We distill practical guidance…
Zyda-2: a 5 Trillion Token High-Quality Dataset
Yury Tokpanov, Paolo Glorioso, Quentin Anthony +1
In this technical report, we present Zyda-2: a five trillion token dataset for language model pretraining. Zyda-2 was used to train our Zamba2 series of models which are state-of-t…
Zyda: A 1.3T Dataset for Open Language Modeling
Yury Tokpanov, Beren Millidge, Paolo Glorioso +4
The size of large language models (LLMs) has scaled dramatically in recent years and their computational and data requirements have surged correspondingly. State-of-the-art languag…
BlackMamba: Mixture of Experts for State-Space Models
Quentin Anthony, Yury Tokpanov, Paolo Glorioso +1
State-space models (SSMs) have recently demonstrated competitive performance to transformers at large-scale language modeling benchmarks while achieving linear time and memory comp…
