How to run Mixtral 8X7B

Mixtral 8X7B, the latest open-source model from Mistral AI, was released without documentation via a tweet containing a magnet link. It is a mixture of experts (MoE) model notable for its capabilities, and although hacky implementations are currently required to run it, more open-source tool support is expected over time. To run Mixtral 8X7B on Vast.ai, an instance with 120GB of GPU RAM is necessary, using either 8X 4090/3090 or 4X A6000/A40 configurations. The guide suggests using a Pytorch development template and a modified version of Illama for inference. Users need to download the model weights via torrent, and proper prompt techniques are essential as the model lacks instruction fine-tuning.
