About
This tutorial provides a comprehensive guide for integrating DeepSpeed with the Megatron-LM GPT2 model, a powerful transformer designed for large-scale language model training. It covers essential steps from data setup and running the original Megatron-LM GPT2 model to enabling DeepSpeed through argument parsing, initialization, and training API usage. The tutorial also delves into advanced topics such as backward propagation, updating model parameters, loss scaling, and checkpoint saving/loading. Furthermore, it explains how to leverage DeepSpeed Activation Checkpoints for memory optimization and highlights the performance gains and memory footprint reduction achieved with DeepSpeed's ZeRO-2 optimizer, enabling the training of models up to 170 billion parameters with significantly improved speed and scalability.
