How to Use GPT-SW3: Unlocking the Power of Nordic Language Models

Jan 31, 2024 | Educational

The GPT-SW3 models, developed by AI Sweden in collaboration with RISE and WASP WARA for Media and Language, serve as powerful autoregressive language models capable of generating coherent text across multiple languages. Here’s your guide on how to access and employ these state-of-the-art models in your projects. Let’s dive in!

Getting Started with GPT-SW3 Models

Before you can unleash the potential of GPT-SW3, you must first ensure you have access to the models. Here’s what you’ll need to do:

  • Login: Since this model is hosted in a private repository, you need to log in using your Hugging Face access token. Use the command: huggingface-cli login. For more details, check out the HuggingFace Quick Start Guide.

Setting Up Your Environment

Next, let’s initialize the required libraries and load the model. In this step, we’ll use Python as our coding environment:

import torch
from transformers import pipeline, AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

# Initialize Variables
model_name = "AI-Sweden-Models/gpt-sw3-126m"
device = "cuda:0" if torch.cuda.is_available() else "cpu"
prompt = "Träd är fina för att"

# Initialize Tokenizer & Model
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name)
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name)
model.eval()
model.to(device) 

Think of loading the model as purchasing a factory stuffed with machines that can produce text on demand based on specific prompts. With the initialization complete, you now have access to a factory that will churn out linguistic masterpieces in multiple Nordic languages!

Generating Text with GPT-SW3

To generate text, we can use either the generate method or the HuggingFace pipeline, which simplifies the process:

  • Method 1: Using the Generate Method
  • input_ids = tokenizer(prompt, return_tensors="pt")["input_ids"].to(device)
    generated_token_ids = model.generate(
        inputs=input_ids,
        max_new_tokens=100,
        do_sample=True,
        temperature=0.6,
        top_p=1,
    )[0]
    generated_text = tokenizer.decode(generated_token_ids)
    
  • Method 2: Using the HuggingFace Pipeline
  • generator = pipeline("text-generation", tokenizer=tokenizer, model=model, device=device)
    generated = generator(prompt, max_new_tokens=100, do_sample=True, temperature=0.6, top_p=1)[0]["generated_text"] 
    

By using the pipeline, think of it as ordering your favorite meal from a restaurant—just tell them what you want, and they serve up a perfectly cooked dish (the text you desired) without needing to understand the intricacies of the kitchen (the underlying model mechanics).

Troubleshooting Tips

Encountering issues while using the models? Here are some common problems and their solutions:

  • Model Not Loading: If you receive errors while trying to load the model, ensure your access token is valid. If issues persist, check network connections or your Hugging Face account settings.
  • Performance Issues: If the model takes a long time to generate responses, consider optimizing your environment. Running the model on a GPU (if available) can significantly enhance performance.
  • Unexpected Output: If the generated text includes irrelevant or nonsensical content, consider adjusting your prompt for clarity and specificity. Experimentation is key here!
  • Safety Concerns: Keep in mind that GPT-SW3 may produce biased or offensive content due to the diversity of its training data. Always review outputs before deployment.
