Instructions to use mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2 with libraries, inference providers, notebooks, and local apps. Follow these links to get started.

Libraries

How to use mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2 with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
pipe(messages)

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2")
messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Who are you?"},
]
inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
	messages,
	add_generation_prompt=True,
	tokenize=True,
	return_dict=True,
	return_tensors="pt",
).to(model.device)

outputs = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=40)
print(tokenizer.decode(outputs[0][inputs["input_ids"].shape[-1]:]))

ValueError: Bfloat16 is only supported on GPUs with compute capability of at least 8.0

Hello,

I have an issue when running the model on Tesla P6 GPU with 16GB of RAM:

ValueError: Bfloat16 is only supported on GPUs with compute capability of at least 8.0. Your Tesla P6 GPU has compute capability 6.1. You can use float16 instead by explicitly setting thedtype flag in CLI, for example: --dtype=half.

Model is served with vLLM. I've tried the suggestion to use "--dtype=half" when calling the model, but it gave me another error, obviously solution is not that simple.

Any suggestions how can I approach solving this issue?

Regards.

I'm not a professional, but the solution I encountered for the same problem before is:

In huggingface transformer

device = "cuda"
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.2")
model.to(device).half()

Regarding vLLM, I think you can inquire on their GitHub.

Solved, just for the record if other face the same issue: Had to vonvert the model to GGUF, int8 or fp16 and then it worked.
