Choosing the Right Model Format
Selecting the correct model format depends on your hardware capabilities and memory constraints.
BF16 (Brain Float 16) β Use if BF16 acceleration is available
- A 16-bit floating-point format designed for faster computation while retaining good precision.
- Provides similar dynamic range as FP32 but with lower memory usage.
- Recommended if your hardware supports BF16 acceleration (check your device's specs).
- Ideal for high-performance inference with reduced memory footprint compared to FP32.
π Use BF16 if:
β Your hardware has native BF16 support (e.g., newer GPUs, TPUs).
β You want higher precision while saving memory.
β You plan to requantize the model into another format.
π Avoid BF16 if:
β Your hardware does not support BF16 (it may fall back to FP32 and run slower).
β You need compatibility with older devices that lack BF16 optimization.
F16 (Float 16) β More widely supported than BF16
- A 16-bit floating-point high precision but with less of range of values than BF16.
- Works on most devices with FP16 acceleration support (including many GPUs and some CPUs).
- Slightly lower numerical precision than BF16 but generally sufficient for inference.
π Use F16 if:
β Your hardware supports FP16 but not BF16.
β You need a balance between speed, memory usage, and accuracy.
β You are running on a GPU or another device optimized for FP16 computations.
π Avoid F16 if:
β Your device lacks native FP16 support (it may run slower than expected).
β You have memory limitations.
Quantized Models (Q4_K, Q6_K, Q8, etc.) β For CPU & Low-VRAM Inference
Quantization reduces model size and memory usage while maintaining as much accuracy as possible.
- Lower-bit models (Q4_K) β Best for minimal memory usage, may have lower precision.
- Higher-bit models (Q6_K, Q8_0) β Better accuracy, requires more memory.
π Use Quantized Models if:
β You are running inference on a CPU and need an optimized model.
β Your device has low VRAM and cannot load full-precision models.
β You want to reduce memory footprint while keeping reasonable accuracy.
π Avoid Quantized Models if:
β You need maximum accuracy (full-precision models are better for this).
β Your hardware has enough VRAM for higher-precision formats (BF16/F16).
Very Low-Bit Quantization (IQ3_XS, IQ3_S, IQ3_M, Q4_K, Q4_0)
These models are optimized for extreme memory efficiency, making them ideal for low-power devices or large-scale deployments where memory is a critical constraint.
IQ3_XS: Ultra-low-bit quantization (3-bit) with extreme memory efficiency.
- Use case: Best for ultra-low-memory devices where even Q4_K is too large.
- Trade-off: Lower accuracy compared to higher-bit quantizations.
IQ3_S: Small block size for maximum memory efficiency.
- Use case: Best for low-memory devices where IQ3_XS is too aggressive.
IQ3_M: Medium block size for better accuracy than IQ3_S.
- Use case: Suitable for low-memory devices where IQ3_S is too limiting.
Q4_K: 4-bit quantization with block-wise optimization for better accuracy.
- Use case: Best for low-memory devices where Q6_K is too large.
Q4_0: Pure 4-bit quantization, optimized for ARM devices.
- Use case: Best for ARM-based devices or low-memory environments.
Summary Table: Model Format Selection
Model Format | Precision | Memory Usage | Device Requirements | Best Use Case |
---|---|---|---|---|
BF16 | Highest | High | BF16-supported GPU/CPUs | High-speed inference with reduced memory |
F16 | High | High | FP16-supported devices | GPU inference when BF16 isn't available |
Q4_K | Medium Low | Low | CPU or Low-VRAM devices | Best for memory-constrained environments |
Q6_K | Medium | Moderate | CPU with more memory | Better accuracy while still being quantized |
Q8_0 | High | Moderate | CPU or GPU with enough VRAM | Best accuracy among quantized models |
IQ3_XS | Very Low | Very Low | Ultra-low-memory devices | Extreme memory efficiency and low accuracy |
Q4_0 | Low | Low | ARM or low-memory devices | llama.cpp can optimize for ARM devices |

Installation
OLMo 2 1B is supported in transformers v4.48 or higher:
pip install transformers>=4.48
If using vLLM, you will need to install from the main branch until v0.7.4 is released. Please
Inference
You can use OLMo with the standard HuggingFace transformers library:
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
olmo = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("allenai/OLMo-2-0425-1B")
tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("allenai/OLMo-2-0425-1B")
message = ["Language modeling is "]
inputs = tokenizer(message, return_tensors='pt', return_token_type_ids=False)
# optional verifying cuda
# inputs = {k: v.to('cuda') for k,v in inputs.items()}
# olmo = olmo.to('cuda')
response = olmo.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=100, do_sample=True, top_k=50, top_p=0.95)
print(tokenizer.batch_decode(response, skip_special_tokens=True)[0])
>> 'Language modeling is a key component of any text-based application, but its effectiveness...'
For faster performance, you can quantize the model using the following method:
AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("allenai/OLMo-2-0425-1B",
torch_dtype=torch.float16,
load_in_8bit=True) # Requires bitsandbytes
The quantized model is more sensitive to data types and CUDA operations. To avoid potential issues, it's recommended to pass the inputs directly to CUDA using:
inputs.input_ids.to('cuda')
We have released checkpoints for these models. For pretraining, the naming convention is stage1-stepXXX-tokensYYYB
. For checkpoints with ingredients of the soup, the naming convention is stage2-ingredientN-stepXXX-tokensYYYB
To load a specific model revision with HuggingFace, simply add the argument revision
:
olmo = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("allenai/OLMo-2-0425-1B", revision="stage1-step140000-tokens294B")
Or, you can access all the revisions for the models via the following code snippet:
from huggingface_hub import list_repo_refs
out = list_repo_refs("allenai/OLMo-2-0425-1B")
branches = [b.name for b in out.branches]
Fine-tuning
Model fine-tuning can be done from the final checkpoint (the main
revision of this model) or many intermediate checkpoints. Two recipes for tuning are available.
- Fine-tune with the OLMo repository:
torchrun --nproc_per_node=8 scripts/train.py {path_to_train_config} \
--data.paths=[{path_to_data}/input_ids.npy] \
--data.label_mask_paths=[{path_to_data}/label_mask.npy] \
--load_path={path_to_checkpoint} \
--reset_trainer_state
For more documentation, see the GitHub README.
- Further fine-tuning support is being developing in AI2's Open Instruct repository. Details are here.

Bias, Risks, and Limitations
Like any base or fine-tuned language model, AI can be prompted by users to generate harmful and sensitive content. Such content may also be produced unintentionally, especially in cases involving bias, so we recommend that users consider the risks when applying this technology. Additionally, many statements from OLMo or any LLM are often inaccurate, so facts should be verified.
