EQ-Bench v2_de: 68.05 169/171, en: 75.27 - which is not the best, but it produces decent answers for some trick questions, and i have a sweet spot for that ;)

Base model: cstr/llama3.1-8b-spaetzle-v74 — a mergekit merge published by the same maintainer as this repository. It is not a third-party upstream: the maintainer authored that model.
What was done here: format conversion and/or quantisation of that base model only (GGUF). No further training, fine-tuning or merging was applied at this step.
Licence: llama3.1, inherited through the base model from the models it was built from.
Training data: none was used, added or selected at this conversion step. The base model's card lists the models it was built from; their training content is documented — where it is documented at all — by their respective providers.
Provider status: under Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 this repository makes no provider claim for the conversion step. Any provider obligations attaching to the model itself — including Art. 53(1)(c) copyright policy and Art. 53(1)(d) training-content summary — attach at cstr/llama3.1-8b-spaetzle-v74, not here.
