AngelSlayer-12B-Unslop-Mell-RPMax-DARKNESS

They say ‘He’ will bring the apocalypse. She seeks understanding, not destruction.

This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using mergekit.

This is my fourth model. I wanted to test della_linear. The point of this model was to use the negative properties of DavidAU/MN-GRAND-Gutenberg-Lyra4-Lyra-12B-DARKNESS to counter potential positivity bias while keeping up stability.

Testing stage: testing

(18/12/2024): The model seems to hold up very well over context, and keeps to the character/prompt nicely. It has expansive, varied prose, lacking GPTisms mostly. The only problem is that the model always seems to interpret the input in a similar manner (probably due to self_attn layers). Thusly the output always tends to follow a certain theme/direction, even if the wording is different per swipe (the longer the response, the more it'll deviate from this set direction at the beginning). A peculiar quirk is that errors are predictable - if the model writes the name of the user in a wrong manner (scrambling letters, etc; I myself have a more complex name), it will ALWAYS missspell that instance of the name in consequent swipes. But it automatically fixes itself. If the first instance of the name is spelt wrong, further instances will be fixed, though. Repetition is low, and DRY can help if it does appear. But I've not had it pick up on any patterns. Higher Temperature (1.25) seems to work better. Sometimes it gives quite the impressive answers. XTC can improve it a lot, without decreasing intelligence - but I've not really defined the difference between responses via neutralized sampler answers and XTC. If you find that the model gives bogus on swipes, add some characters at the end of your input to sort-of scramble the output (add some asterisks or whatever; or write some useless extra sentence if you so desire).

EDIT: This 'theme' of swipes being similar seems to be an issue with inflatebot/MN-12B-Mag-Mell-R1. Perhaps I'll reduce the weight of it/balance it with ArliAI/Mistral-Nemo-12B-ArliAI-RPMax-v1.2](https://huggingface.co/ArliAI/Mistral-Nemo-12B-ArliAI-RPMax-v1.2) by putting that as the last model (the model order matters with DELLA-Linear, 'lower' models in the config hold more prevalence). Perhaps I can experiment with using the base models that inflatebot/MN-12B-Mag-Mell-R1 utilizes to perhaps remerge the whole model to try to alleviate this issue via different merge methods.

Parameters

• Context size: Not more than 20k recommended - coherency may degrade.
• Chat Template: ChatML
• Samplers: A Temperature-Last of 1-1.25 and Min-P of 0.1-0.25 are viable, but haven't been finetuned. Activate DRY if repetition appears. XTC seems to work well.
