# Dodona 15B 8K Preview
Dodona 15B 8K Preview is an experiment for fan-fiction and character ai use cases. It is built on Starcoder Plus to give it 8K context length and pretrained on a corpus of fanfiction and visual novels.
Lots of mistakes were made during the creation of this model, but we didn't want to throw $300 of model training time out the window, so we are releasing this as a preview.
