GPT3XL training

hey. it seems that it's working right now.
I collect some small changes need to make in the colab example to make it running:

1. change installed tokenizers in requirements file to 0.9.4 or add the command
   !pip install tokenizers==0.9.4
2. in # Tokenize Data line: change name of argument from “base_dir” to “input_dir” .
3. delete the argument “--use_gpt2_tokenizer” because it’s using gpt2 tokenizer fast by default .
   I might add soon more changes if needed..

Great! Can you put these changes on a branch and open a PR? That way we can verify that it doesn’t break anything on the TPUs and merge it.

[srulikbd]

yeah, of course. I'll do that as soon as possible.
well done for your awesome work!

[srulikbd]

there are some incompatibility between the tokenizers to the transformers version (it's installing the current transformers version, but the old tokenizers one).

1. which versions should we use?

[loretoparisi]

@srulikbd I asked to Thomas Wolf from HF about this, and his suggestion was to use the latest version of both. Could you be more specific about the tokenizer's version issue?
Thank you.

@StellaAthena hey.
I got to the training stage, but it got stuck over for some reason. do you have any idea why?
I succeed easily run the train_enwik8 on the gpt-neox library...what is the difference between the 2 packages?

here is the output after running on google colab the GPTNEO example:

Where are you running this code? Are you using your own GPUs?

[srulikbd]

I tried both GPU and tpu on colab. I tried also on aws AMI instance with V100.
The bug i quoted is from GPU colab.

Sorry this slipped through the cracks. I assume you got everything working based on your PR?

[srulikbd]

actually it might still not work. I saw that you are focused on gptneox, so I switched over there :)
