patricide-12B-Unslop-Mell-v2

The sins of the Father shan't ever be repeated this way.

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

This is my seventh model. I decided to use TheDrummer/UnslopNemo-12B-v4 instead of TheDrummer/UnslopNemo-12B-v4.1 as it supposedly has more anti-GPTism influence at the cost of intelligence, so I'll be using it in future merges. It could most likely be counteracted by adding more intelligent models. TheDrummer said that Metharme/Pygmalion templates have higher anti-GPTism effect, but those specific tokens aren't enforced/present in the tokenizer, and I prefer ChatML. Thusly I picked the model that has more anti-GPTism influence in it's base state. I decided to tweak the parameters to be more balanced, while also just generally testing NuSLERP. If I find better parameters I might release a V2B of some kind. I still haven't had much time to test this exhaustively and I'm also working on other projects.

Testing stage: early testing

I do not know how this model holds up over long term context. Early testing showed stability and viable answers.

Parameters

• Context size: Not more than 20k recommended - coherency may degrade.
• Chat Template: ChatML; Metharme/Pygmalion (as per UnslopNemo) may work, but effects are untested
• Samplers: A Temperature-Last of 1 and Min-P of 0.1 are viable, but haven't been finetuned. Activate DRY if repetition appears. XTC is untested.
