EXL2 quant of alpindale/goliath-120b (https://huggingface.co/alpindale/goliath-120b), to be used on exllamav2. 4.25bpw to being to able to use CFG comfortably on 72GB VRAM. 

Calibration dataset is a cleaned, fixed pippa RP dataset, which does affect the results (in favor) for RP usage.

You can find the calibration dataset [here](https://discord.com/channels/1111983596572520458/1152699950208139415/1152700764230271076) (You will need to be on TheBloke server to be able to download it)

I've added a measurement.json file if you want to do your own quants.

# Original model card

# Goliath 120B

An auto-regressive causal LM created by combining 2x finetuned [Llama-2 70B](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/llama-2-70b-hf) into one.

Please check out the quantized formats provided by [@TheBloke](https:///huggingface.co/TheBloke) and [@Panchovix](https://huggingface.co/Panchovix):

- [GGUF](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/goliath-120b-GGUF) (llama.cpp)
- [GPTQ](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/goliath-120b-GPTQ) (KoboldAI, TGW, Aphrodite)
- [AWQ](https://huggingface.co/TheBloke/goliath-120b-AWQ) (TGW, Aphrodite, vLLM)
- [Exllamav2](https://huggingface.co/Panchovix/goliath-120b-exl2) (TGW, KoboldAI)

# Prompting Format

Both Vicuna and Alpaca will work, but due the initial and final layers belonging primarily to Xwin, I expect Vicuna to work the best.

# Merge process

The models used in the merge are [Xwin](https://huggingface.co/Xwin-LM/Xwin-LM-70B-V0.1) and [Euryale](https://huggingface.co/Sao10K/Euryale-1.3-L2-70B).

The layer ranges used are as follows:

```yaml
- range 0, 16
  Xwin
- range 8, 24
  Euryale
- range 17, 32
  Xwin
- range 25, 40
  Euryale
- range 33, 48
  Xwin
- range 41, 56
  Euryale
- range 49, 64
  Xwin
- range 57, 72
  Euryale
- range 65, 80
  Xwin
```
