Gemma 2 Ataraxy v2 9B
Finally, after much testing, a sucessor to the first Gemma 2 Ataraxy 9B. Same kind of recipe, using the same principles, same concept as the last Ataraxy but using better models this time.
About
In this merge, we stuck to using models that used preference optimized training (because, while very expensive to train, these are bar none the best performing Gemma finetunes in all my tests), or trained on the amazing gutenberg dataset just like the last one. You can read why jondurbin/gutenberg-dpo-v0.1 is such a good dataset here: https://huggingface.co/lemon07r/Gemma-2-Ataraxy-9B#why-gutenberg.
This time we use the very good advanced 2.1 merge (a merge using the three best preference optimized models), and a new gutenberg model trained on the dataset in the style of SimPO. Both models alone were already better than the original Ataraxy at writing, and general use, which was a pretty high bar to clear. Merging good models, does not always mean a good resulting model. In fact, when the parent models are really good, usually the child model is not as good. This one however, has surprisingly done quite well in my testing thus far and should be a significant upgrade to the last Ataraxy.
