Bagel, Mixtral Instruct, with extra spices. Give it a taste. Works with Alpaca prompt formats, though the Mistral format should also work.

I started experimenting around seeing if I could improve or fix some of Bagel's problems. Totally inspired by seeing how well Doctor-Shotgun's Mixtral-8x7B-Instruct-v0.1-LimaRP-ZLoss worked (which is a LimaRP tune on top of base Mixtral, and then merged with Mixtral Instruct) - I decided to try some merges of Bagel with Mixtral Instruct as a result.
Somehow I ended up here, Bagel, Mixtral Instruct, a little bit of LimaRP, a little bit of Sao10K's Sensualize. So far in my testing it's working very well, and while it seems fairly unaligned on a lot of stuff, it's maybe a little too aligned on a few specific things (which I think comes from Sensualize) - so that's something to play with in the future, or maybe try to DPO out.
I've been running (temp last) minP 0.1, dynatemp 0.5-4, rep pen 1.02, rep range 1024. I've been testing Alpaca style Instruction/Response, and Instruction/Input/Response and those seem to work well, I expect Mistral's prompt format would also work well. You may need to add a stopping string on "{{char}}:" for RPs because it can sometimes duplicate those out in responses and waffle on. Seems to hold up and not fall apart at long contexts like Bagel and some other Mixtral tunes seem to, definitely doesn't seem prone to loopyness either. Can be pushed into extravagant prose if the scene/setting calls for it.
This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using mergekit.
