Release 2.6.0
Announcing Release 2.6.0
This release introduces a 2nd competition starting at block 4,451,695: INSTRUCT 8B. As we strive for SOTA models, we believe it's important that miners have as much flexibility as possible - hence, this competition allows you to bring-your-own-tokenizer!
New competition
- Start block: 4,451,695
- Max size: 8.1B
- The allowed list of architectures has also been expanded
- This competition uses the same set of evaluation tasks as the current competition
- The competition is started at 10% subnet weight, and we will look to increase this in the near future if the competition shows promise
Other updates
- This change also updates the subnet to bittensor 8.4.3. As part of this update, we have found the logs are quite noisy. However, we wanted to get this release out to kick-off the new competition! We will greatly improve validator logging in the next release
- Note: One benign log that shows up frequently is
File "/usr/lib/python3.10/multiprocessing/connection.py", line 383, in _recv raise EOFError
Validators should update as soon as they can. Note that due to requirement version updates you will need to rerun
python -m pip install -e .
