Llama3_DiscoLeo_8B_DARE_Experimental

DiscoResearch/Llama3_German_8B_v0.1 is a large language model based on Meta's Llama3-8B. It is specialized for the German language through continuous pretraining on 65 billion high-quality tokens, similar to previous LeoLM or Occiglot models.

This is a merge of our instruct model with the Instruct model by Meta. Created using mergekit. Contributed by Damian B.!
