# Imran1/Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct-FP8
## Overview
**Imran1/Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct-FP8** is an optimized version of the base model **Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct**, utilizing **FP8** (8-bit floating point) precision. This reduces memory usage and increases computational efficiency, making it ideal for large-scale inference tasks without sacrificing the model's performance.
This model is well-suited for applications such as:
- Conversational AI and chatbots
- Instruction-based tasks
- Text generation, summarization, and dialogue completion
## Key Features
- **72 billion parameters** for powerful language generation and understanding capabilities.
- **FP8 precision** for reduced memory consumption and faster inference.
- Supports **tensor parallelism** for distributed computing environments.
## Usage Instructions
### 1. Running the Model with vLLM
You can serve the model using **vLLM** with tensor parallelism enabled. Below is an example command for running the model:
```bash
vllm serve Imran1/Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct-FP8 --api-key token-abc123 --tensor-parallel-size 2
```
### 2. Interacting with the Model via Python (OpenAI API)
Here’s an example of how to interact with the model using the OpenAI API interface:
```python
from openai import OpenAI
client = OpenAI(
base_url="http://localhost:8000/v1", # Your vLLM server URL
api_key="token-abc123", # Replace with your API key
)
# Example chat completion request
completion = client.chat.completions.create(
model="Imran1/Qwen2.5-72B-Instruct-FP8",
messages=[
{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"},
],
max_tokens=500,
stream=True
)
print(completion)
```
## Performance and Efficiency
- **Memory Efficiency**: FP8 precision significantly reduces memory requirements, allowing for larger batch sizes and faster processing times.
- **Speed**: The FP8 version provides faster inference, making it highly suitable for real-time applications.
## Limitations
- **Precision Trade-offs**: While FP8 enhances speed and memory usage, tasks that require high precision (e.g., numerical calculations) may see a slight performance degradation compared to FP16/FP32 versions.
