PR#1295 - Fix too sensitive "Unsloth currently does not support multi GPU setups" when training with a single GPU in a multi-GPU environment.open

2_/5

Giulia Baldini (giuliabaldini)Created: 2024-11-15

The pull request aims to address a specific issue related to multi-GPU setups but lacks thorough testing and verification. The author admits to not having the necessary environment to fully test the changes, leading to uncertainties about the effectiveness of the fix. Additionally, there are ongoing discussions about consolidating error checks, indicating that the solution may not be comprehensive. The presence of unresolved errors and reliance on others for testing further detracts from its quality. Overall, the PR is incomplete and requires more work to ensure it functions as intended.
