# Daredevil-8B

![image/jpeg](https://cdn-uploads.huggingface.co/production/uploads/61b8e2ba285851687028d395/gFEhcIDSKa3AWpkNfH91q.jpeg)

Daredevil-8B is a mega-merge designed to maximize MMLU. On 27 May 24, it is the Llama 3 8B model with the **highest MMLU score**.
From my experience, a high MMLU score is all you need with Llama 3 models.

It is a merge of the following models using [LazyMergekit](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1obulZ1ROXHjYLn6PPZJwRR6GzgQogxxb?usp=sharing):

Thanks to nbeerbower, Hastagaras, openchat, Kukedlc, cstr, flammenai, and KingNish for their merges. Special thanks to Charles Goddard and Arcee.ai for MergeKit.

## πŸ”Ž Applications

You can use it as an improved version of [meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct).

This is a censored model. For an uncensored version, see [mlabonne/Daredevil-8B-abliterated](https://huggingface.co/mlabonne/Daredevil-8B-abliterated).

Tested on LM Studio using the "Llama 3" preset.

model = "mlabonne/Daredevil-8B"
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "What is a large language model?"}]

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model)
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
pipeline = transformers.pipeline(
    "text-generation",
    model=model,
    torch_dtype=torch.bfloat16,
    device_map="auto",
)

outputs = pipeline(prompt, max_new_tokens=256, do_sample=True, temperature=0.7, top_k=50, top_p=0.95)
