Tips

Being a Yi model, try disabling the BOS token and/or running a lower temperature with MinP (and no other samplers) if output doesn't seem right. Yi tends to run "hot" by default.

Sometimes the model "spells out" the stop token as like Capybara, so you may need to add as an additional stopping condition.

Benchmarks

Coming soon.
