# Zephyr 7B Alpha-GGUF

- Model creator: [Hugging Face H4](https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceH4)
- Original model: [Zephyr 7B Alpha](https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceH4/zephyr-7b-alpha) 

## Description

Zephyr is a series of language models that are trained to act as helpful assistants. Zephyr-7B-α is the first model in the series, and is a fine-tuned version of [mistralai/Mistral-7B-v0.1](https://huggingface.co/mistralai/Mistral-7B-v0.1) that was trained on on a mix of publicly available, synthetic datasets using [Direct Preference Optimization (DPO)](https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.18290). We found that removing the in-built alignment of these datasets boosted performance on [MT Bench](https://huggingface.co/spaces/lmsys/mt-bench) and made the model more helpful. However, this means that model is likely to generate problematic text when prompted to do so.
