Llama-3-13B-Instruct
This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using mergekit.
The goal was to create a Llama 3 13B model to have a "mid" sized model which Meta has released in the past, but I would consider this a base model to be further finetuned on. Surprisingly, it is usable for chat and storywriting with Llama 3 Instruct template, though it does occasionally have some grammatical quirks like L3-120B.
Logical ability (programming, math, science, etc.) has been deteriorated by the merge process.
Use no repetition penalty or <1.05 or it might go a bit haywire, other than that, it is suitable for writing use. I have not tested it against L3 8B in that regard.
Finetuned Version
A finetuned version of this model can be found at elinas/Llama-3-13B-Instruct-ft which seems to improve performance.
