Finetune GPT2 
Hi
According to pytorch-transformers/docs/source/index.rst
There was a run_gpt2.py example which also shows how to finetune GPT2 on the training data.
I was wondernig if you could add this example back, and proving sample script to finetune GPT2.
thanks.
Best regards,
Rabeeh
Hi Rabeeh,

We are currently working on an updated example on fine-tuning generative models, especially GPT-2. The example should be up later this week, keep an eye out!<|||||>Any update on when this example will be available?  Thanks!<|||||>Hope this issue won't be closed until the example is done.<|||||>The script is being worked on over at https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-transformers/pull/987 ([see relevant file here](https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-transformers/blob/master/examples/run_lm_finetuning.py)). It works for GPT/GPT-2 but it isn't ready for BERT/RoBERTa so we're not releasing it yet.

It shows how to fine-tune GPT-2 using causal language modeling on WikiText-2.<|||||>Any update on when this example will be available? Thanks!
The link of "see relevant file here" is 404<|||||>Oh yes, the script is out.

It was renamed `run_lm_fintuning.py` you can find it in the `examples` folder: https://github.com/huggingface/pytorch-transformers/blob/master/examples/run_lm_finetuning.py

You can use it to fintune GPT, GPT-2, BERT or RoBERTa on your dataset.

Here is an example on how to run it: https://huggingface.co/pytorch-transformers/examples.html#causal-lm-fine-tuning-on-gpt-gpt-2-masked-lm-fine-tuning-on-bert-roberta<|||||>Silly question but how do you know which gpt-2 model is being trained? Does it default to the largest one available. I couldn't find any indication of which size model is being used in the fine tuning script.<|||||>Hi Henry,
Default to the small one.
You can select the size with the `model_name_or_path` argument. Just put in
the argument the relevant shortcut name for the model as listed [here](
https://huggingface.co/transformers/pretrained_models.html).

<|||||>Ah got it, thanks!<|||||>` run_lm_fintuning.py` is no longer available in the examples folder when you clone the transformers repo. Is there a reason for this? It was available a couple of months ago. <|||||>It’s named run_language_modeling.py now<|||||>Great, thanks!<|||||>This may sound silly also, but will `run_lm_fintuning.py` be able to finetune microsoft/DialoGPT model on a custom dataset?  Thank you<|||||>Yes, but it's named `run_language_modeling.py` now.
