# palmer
This model is a "MErging of Experts" (MEoE) fine-tuned to be biased as an assistant without using any prompts—as a result of these efforts—palmer is better than babbage-002 and qwen-1.8b on most benchmarks (except MMLU) despite being 40% smaller.

This work constitutes an advancement towards SMLs being easily powered by edge devices like mobile phones, raspberry pis and automated software/robots. Aditionally, palmer-003 deviates its main philosophy from palmer-family to become a more powerful model with more data instead of less.

Note that since this is a traditional transformer as any popular language model, it contains hallucinations (make mistakes), and as such, it must be used with precaution on sensitive tasks.

```
prompt: reality is but
output: Reality is but a dream,
And the dreams we make are our reality.

The world is a canvas, painted by our minds,
And we can make it a masterpiece.

So let us create, let us dream,
And let our imagination run wild.

For in our imagination lies our power,
To create a world that is truly our own.
