Grok-1

This repository contains JAX example code for loading and running the Grok-1 open-weights model.

Make sure to download the checkpoint and place the ckpt-0 directory in checkpoints - see Downloading the weights

Then, run

pip install -r requirements.txt
python run.py

to test the code.

The script loads the checkpoint and samples from the model on a test input.

Due to the large size of the model (314B parameters), a machine with enough GPU memory (314GB+ vRAM) is required to test the model with the example code. The implementation of the MoE layer in this repository is not efficient. The implementation was chosen to avoid the need for custom kernels to validate the correctness of the model.

Model Specifications

Grok-1 is currently designed with the following specifications:

• Parameters: 314B
• Architecture: Mixture of 8 Experts (MoE)
• Experts Utilization: 2 experts used per token
• Layers: 64
• Attention Heads: 48 for queries, 8 for keys/values
• Embedding Size: 6,144
• Tokenization: SentencePiece tokenizer with 131,072 tokens
• Additional Features:
  • Rotary embeddings (RoPE)
  • Supports activation sharding and 8-bit quantization
• Maximum Sequence Length (context): 8,192 tokens
