# Llama3_DiscoLeo_8B_DARE_Experimental

[DiscoResearch/Llama3_German_8B_v0.1](https://huggingface.co/collections/DiscoResearch/discoleo-8b-llama3-for-german-6650527496c0fafefd4c9729) is a large language model based on [Meta's Llama3-8B](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B). It is specialized for the German language through continuous pretraining on 65 billion high-quality tokens, similar to previous [LeoLM](https://huggingface.co/LeoLM) or [Occiglot](https://huggingface.co/collections/occiglot/occiglot-eu5-7b-v01-65dbed502a6348b052695e01) models.

This is a merge of our instruct model with the Instruct model by Meta. Created using [mergekit](https://github.com/cg123/mergekit).
