Iambe-20b-DARE
GGUF Quants
Description and Role
Named after a charming daughter of Echo and Pan in Greek myth, Iambe-20b-DARE is a DARE merge building on my recent experiments.
Iambe is intended to have the best realisticly possible understanding of anatomy and of a scene's state for a 20b merge, while remaining personable and authentic in "voice".
Prompting and Context
Iambe-20b-DARE uses Alpaca formatting, and has an effective context size of 4096 tokens. This model is uncensored, and the output/deployment of this model is the responsibility of the user.
Method and Hypothesis
Based on my extended vanilla model BigLlama, this adds elements of:
NeverSleep/Noromaid-20b-v0.1.1 - Addded to adapt the excellent writing and "soul" that come from the datasets backing this model.
athirdpath/Eileithyia-20b - Added at low weight and density to capture anatomical data and its relation to fiction without the model's other... quirks.
athirdpath/CleverGirl-20b-Blended - Added to capture CleverGirl's problem-solving abilities.
Examples
(q5_k_m GGUF quant, Ooba textgen, Midnight Enigma preset for KISS reasons)
Reasoning and Recall - STEM
Reasoning and Recall - Social Science
!!NSFW!! - Erotica Writing Example - !!NSFW!!
Testing and Conclusions
VERY Impressed so far, concrete data coming eventually.
Does still have some confusion (at q5_k_m), but has instantly become my daily driver.
