Description

📚 Documentation

In the blog introducing FSDP API

fsdp_model = FullyShardedDataParallel(
   model(),
   fsdp_auto_wrap_policy=default_auto_wrap_policy,
   cpu_offload=CPUOffload(offload_params=True),
)

it should be model instead of model() inside FullyShardedDataParallel

so it should be

fsdp_model = FullyShardedDataParallel(
   model,
   fsdp_auto_wrap_policy=default_auto_wrap_policy,
   cpu_offload=CPUOffload(offload_params=True),
)
