Data scientists seeking a solution to fine-tune large language models across various architectures
About Axolotl
Axolotl is an open source tool designed to streamline the fine-tuning of various AI models, offering support for multiple configurations and architectures. It enables users to train models, supporting methods like full fine-tuning, LoRA, QLoRA, ReLoRA, and GPTQ. Users can customize configurations using simple YAML files or command-line interface overrides, and load different dataset formats, including custom or pre-tokenized datasets. Axolotl integrates with technologies like xFormers, Flash Attention, Liger kernel, RoPE scaling, and multipacking, and works with single or multiple GPUs via Fully Sharded Data Parallel (FSDP) or DeepSpeed. It can be run locally or on the cloud using Docker and supports logging results and checkpoints to several platforms. It is designed to make fine-tuning AI models friendly, fast, and fun, without sacrificing functionality or scale.

Unsloth
Unsloth is an open source platform designed to accelerate and optimize the fine-tuning and training of Large Language Models (LLMs). It enables users to train custom models, such as ChatGPT, in just 24 hours instead of the typical 30 days, achieving speeds up to 30 times faster than Flash Attention 2 (FA2) while using 90% less memory. Unsloth supports both LoRA and QLoRA fine-tuning techniques, allowing for efficient customization of models like Mistral, Gemma, and Llama versions 1, 2, and 3. Unsloth's efficiency stems from manually deriving computationally intensive mathematical steps and handwriting GPU kernels, resulting in significant performance gains without requiring hardware modifications. Unsloth delivers a 10x speed increase on a single GPU and up to 32x on multi-GPU systems compared to FA2, with compatibility across NVIDIA GPUs from Tesla T4 to H100, and portability to AMD and Intel GPUs.

You can now fine-tune GPT with absolutely zero technical skills. Enhance AI models by tailoring them to your specific needs. Prompteasy.ai helps you fine-tune AI models in a matter of seconds. We make AI tailored to your needs by helping you fine-tune it. The best part is, that you don't even have to know AI fine-tuning. Our AI models will take care of everything. We will be offering prompteasy for free as part of our initial launch. We'll be rolling out pricing plans later this year. Our vision is to make AI smart and easily accessible to anyone. We believe that the true power of AI lies in how we train and orchestrate the foundational models, as opposed to just using them off the shelf. Forget generating massive datasets, just upload relevant materials and interact with our AI through natural language. We take care of building the dataset ready for fine-tuning. You just chat with the AI, download the dataset, and fine-tune GPT.
