# L3.1-70b-Ginny

Like with everything, I have to start somewhere right? As such this model is named **Ginny**.

L3.1-70b-Ginny is a merge of the following models using [LazyMergekit](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1obulZ1ROXHjYLn6PPZJwRR6GzgQogxxb?usp=sharing):
* [NousResearch/Hermes-3-Llama-3.1-70B](https://huggingface.co/NousResearch/Hermes-3-Llama-3.1-70B)
* [Fizzarolli/L3.1-70b-glitz-v0.2](https://huggingface.co/Fizzarolli/L3.1-70b-glitz-v0.2)
* [cyberagent/Llama-3.1-70B-Japanese-Instruct-2407](https://huggingface.co/cyberagent/Llama-3.1-70B-Japanese-Instruct-2407)
* [Sao10K/L3-70B-Euryale-v2.1](https://huggingface.co/Sao10K/L3-70B-Euryale-v2.1)

Using Hermes as a base, I mixed in Glitz and Euryale which I both liked. I think I prefer Glitz more actually.

Additionally I decided to throw in cyberagent's Japanese Instruct in the hopes it will boost Japanese capabilities.

*(Though on recommendations from others, I've steeled myself to never use Hermes as base ever again.)*

## Model Testing

- The Japanese Instruct was a success in my books. The model appears to be more capable in Japanese and I think it can do translations given the right prompt.
- Model can get quite rambly. Lower Temp helps.

## Yap / Chat Format

~~Hermes likes ChatML~~, but the other 3 models use L3 Instruct.

## 💻 Usage

```python
!pip install -qU transformers accelerate

from transformers import AutoTokenizer
import transformers
import torch

model = "KaraKaraWitch/L3.1-70b-Ginny"
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.float16,
    device_map="auto",
)

outputs = pipeline(prompt, max_new_tokens=256, do_sample=True, temperature=0.7, top_k=50, top_p=0.95)
print(outputs[0]["generated_text"])
