Does the model support Float16 and Bfloat16 precision?
Thanks for the excellent work!
The model can work well at float32. When I try to convert the model weights to float16/bfloat16, the model output becomes weird. Is this normal?
The base model (olmoe) was trained in bf16 so I think this one should also work in bf16? Maybe @chrisc36 knows more
I've successfully used it with load_in_4bit=True. Didn't measure performance drop though.
Having the same problem, getting nonsense outputs when i load the model in float16 and bfloat16
Hey @etoml I have recreated this issue and yes the model gives wrong outputs when the model is loaded in float16/bf16.
My investigation showed significant precision loss affecting model features. After debugging these issues extensively, I hypothesize that bfloat16 quantization is blurring the distinction between different visual elements and completely losing some fine-grained details.
