# merge

This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using [mergekit](https://github.com/cg123/mergekit).

## Merge Details

An experimental merge of the legendary L3-8B-Stheno with Fizzarolli's Rosier. The aim is to improve Stheno's "ball-rolling" capabilities and reduce its awkwardness with more niche content.
For a first go, I'm surprised at how well it's doing so far, but given that this is literally my first LLM project ever, probably temper your expectations.

### Merge Method

This model was merged using the [linear](https://arxiv.org/abs/2203.05482) merge method.

* [Fizzarolli/L3-8b-Rosier-v1](https://huggingface.co/Fizzarolli/L3-8b-Rosier-v1)
* [Sao10K/L3-8B-Stheno-v3.2](https://huggingface.co/Sao10K/L3-8B-Stheno-v3.2)
