Model Description
(Very longform outputs, could be broken. Still fun to use and still very clever) This model version is the 9th sequential fine-tuning of the original ANIMA-Phi-Neptune-Mistral-7B and has gone through an additional 20 hours of training using a custom dataset that combined Nectar along with my Biomimicry/STEM data in a unique interwoven way. It has A LOT of 'active' knowledge and ability to form new and novel relationships for problem-solving. It also likes to be VERY verbose, to the point of non-stop talking at points, since its' last training was on longform multi-turn problem solving design strategies in the form of conversational discourse (my custom Biomimicry/Nectar dataset). Have fun!
📝 Usage
ANIMA is designed around the Biomimicry Design Process to guide users in solving problems through biomimicry. For more information and examples, please visit Biomimicry Design Process.
EXAMPLE OUTPUT
[INST] How can biomimicry help in water purification? [/INST]
Biomimicry plays a significant role in water purification by taking inspiration from natural processes and organisms to develop sustainable and efficient solutions. Here's a comprehensive overview of how biomimicry can help in water purification:
Microbial filtration:
- Bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria) can effectively target contaminants in water systems, such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. By mimicking the natural defense mechanisms of bacteriophages, we can develop efficient filtration systems that remove pollutants from water sources.
- Some fungi, such as Trametes versicolor, can break down organic pollutants in water using enzymes. This process helps make contaminated water safe for consumption. By studying and replicating these natural processes, we can develop sustainable filtration systems that remove pollutants from water sources effectively.
Biofilm-based filtration:
- Microorganisms form biofilms on surfaces to protect themselves from environmental threats like predators or contaminants. By mimicking the natural formation of biofilms, we can develop sustainable filtration systems that use bacteria or fungi to remove pollutants from water sources.
- For example, a study has shown how Pseudomonas putida could be used to biodegrade petroleum hydrocarbons in contaminated water sources using a biofilm-based system. This method offers an eco-friendly alternative to conventional chemical treatments for oil spills.
Wetland-based filtration:
- Wetlands act as natural filters for water by retaining sediments and organic matter, which helps remove contaminants. By mimicking the natural processes of a wetland, we can design effective water purification systems that use sand filters or engineered wetlands to remove pollutants. For instance, a study has shown how reed beds can be used for water filtration by using them as a natural treatment system for agricultural wastewater.
Sponge filtration:
- Some marine sponges (e.g., sea sponge) have evolved sophisticated mechanisms to filter out particles and contaminants from the surrounding water. By studying these natural filtration processes, we can develop efficient and sustainable filtration systems that remove pollutants effectively. For example, a study has shown how sea sponges can be used as a model for designing a low-cost, self-sustaining water purification system that uses solar energy to disinfect contaminated water.
Biodegradable materials:
- Natural organisms have evolved biodegradable materials to protect themselves from predators or environmental threats. For instance, some insects produce natural pesticides (such as alkaloids) to defend themselves against predators. Similarly, we can develop biodegradable materials that release these natural pesticides in contaminated water sources, killing off contaminants and restoring the environment's health.
- For example, a study has shown how bacterial cells can be used as a natural filtration system to remove contaminants from water sources by incorporating them into membranes that selectively remove organic pollutants.
In conclusion, biomimicry plays a vital role in water purification by using natural processes and organisms as inspiration for developing sustainable and efficient solutions. By studying the natural filtration mechanisms of microorganisms, plants, animals, and other living organisms, we can design eco-friendly and cost-effective water purification systems that help protect our environment from contamination.

KNOWN ISSUES
The model will sometimes respond to itself and continue the conversation taking both the user and AI roles. This is a known issue in the Mistral model but does not happen very often.
