OpenDiLoCo

Open source implementation of distributed low communication AI model training

  • Support distributed AI model training on a global scale.
  • Implement communication and metadata synchronization between nodes through the Hivemind library.
  • Implemented integration with PyTorch FSDP, supporting the expansion of a single DiLoCo working node to hundreds of machines.
  • The practicality of model training was demonstrated between two continents and three countries, maintaining a computational utilization rate of 90-95%.
  • Through ablation research, in-depth insights into the scalability and computational efficiency of algorithms have been provided.
  • Support fault-tolerant training on different hardware settings.
  • Provides the ability to add or remove resources in real-time, allowing new devices and clusters to join or exit during the training process.
