This required parallelizing across 4 dimensions: data, tensor, context, pipeline. And it is infamously hard to do, making for bloated code repos that hold together only by magic. ๐Ÿค ๐—•๐˜‚๐˜ ๐—ป๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐˜„๐—ฒ ๐—ฑ๐—ผ๐—ป'๐˜ ๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐—ต๐˜‚๐—ด๐—ฒ ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐˜€ ๐—ฎ๐—ป๐˜†๐—บ๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ! Instead of building mega-training codes, Hugging Face colleagues cooked in the other direction, towards tiny 4D parallelism libs. A team has built Nanotron, already widely used in industry. And now a team releases Picotron, a radical approach to code 4D Parallelism in just a few hundred lines of code, a real engineering prowess, making it much easier to understand what's actually happening! โšก ๐—œ๐˜'๐˜€ ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ป๐˜†, ๐˜†๐—ฒ๐˜ ๐—ฝ๐—ผ๐˜„๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ณ๐˜‚๐—น: Counting in MFU (Model FLOPs Utilization, how much the model actually uses all the compute potential), this lib reaches ~50% on SmolLM-1.7B model with 8 H100 GPUs, which is really close to what huge libs would reach. (Caution: the team is leading further benchmarks to verify this) Go take a look ๐Ÿ‘‰ https://github.com/huggingface/picotron/tree/main/picotron
