• [Model Release] ...

1). Finance is highly dynamic. BloombergGPT trained an LLM using a mixture of finance data and general-purpose data, which took about 53 days, at a cost of around $3M). It is costly to retrain an LLM model like BloombergGPT every month or every week, thus lightweight adaptation is highly favorable. FinGPT can be fine-tuned swiftly to incorporate new data (the cost falls significantly, less than $300 per fine-tuning).

2). Democratizing Internet-scale financial data is critical, say allowing timely updates of the model (monthly or weekly updates) using an automatic data curation pipeline. BloombergGPT has privileged data access and APIs, while FinGPT presents a more accessible alternative. It prioritizes lightweight adaptation, leveraging the best available open-source LLMs.

3). The key technology is "RLHF (Reinforcement learning from human feedback)", which is missing in BloombergGPT. RLHF enables an LLM model to learn individual preferences (risk-aversion level, investing habits, personalized robo-advisor, etc.), which is the "secret" ingredient of ChatGPT and GPT4.

• FinGPT V3 (Updated on 10/12/2023)

  • What's new: Best trainable and inferable FinGPT for sentiment analysis on a single RTX 3090, which is even better than GPT-4 and ChatGPT Finetuning.

  • FinGPT v3 series are LLMs finetuned with the LoRA method on the News and Tweets sentiment analysis dataset which achieve the best scores on most of the financial sentiment analysis datasets with low cost.

  • FinGPT v3.3 use llama2-13b as base model; FinGPT v3.2 uses llama2-7b as base model; FinGPT v3.1 uses chatglm2-6B as base model.

  • Benchmark Results:

  • Weighted F1	FPB	FiQA-SA	TFNS	NWGI	Devices	Time	Cost
    FinGPT v3.3	0.882	0.874	0.903	0.643	1 × RTX 3090	17.25 hours	$17.25
    FinGPT v3.2	0.850	0.860	0.894	0.636	1 × A100	5.5 hours	$ 22.55

    FinGPT (QLoRA)	0.777	0.752	0.828	0.583	1 × RTX 3090	4.15 hours	$ 4.15

    BloombergGPT	0.511	0.751	-	-	512 × A100	53 days	$ 2.67 million

    Cost per GPU hour. For A100 GPUs, the AWS p4d.24xlarge instance, equipped with 8 A100 GPUs is used as a benchmark to estimate the costs. Note that BloombergGPT also used p4d.24xlarge As of July 11, 2023, the hourly rate for this instance stands at $32.773. Consequently, the estimated cost per GPU hour comes to $32.77 divided by 8, resulting in approximately $4.10. With this value as the reference unit price (1 GPU hour). BloombergGPT estimated cost= 512 x 53 x 24 = 651,264 GPU hours x $4.10 = $2,670,182.40. For RTX 3090, we assume its cost per hour is approximately $1.0, which is actually much higher than available GPUs from platforms like vast.ai.

  • Reproduce the results by running benchmarks, and the detailed tutorial is on the way.
