ERNIE-21B-A3B-Claude-4.5-High-OPUS-Thinking

This is a uncensored, full deep thinking Ernie 21B-A3B (MOE, 64 experts) fine tune using Claude 4.5 High Opus reasoning dataset via Unsloth via local hardware, Linux (for windows).

Note this model is mostly uncensored right from the "factory" so to speak.

Model excels in creative (brainstorming, creative prose) as well as general usage.

Reasoning is compact, but detailed (very detailed) and right to the "point" so to speak.

CRITICAL SETTINGS:

• for creative suggest rep pen of 1.01 to 1.1
• for general work rep pen of 1 (off), 1.05 or 1.1
• Lower quants MAY LOOP in some cases.

Reasoning affects:

• General model operation.
• Output generation
• Benchmarks.

Model Features:

• 128k context
• Temp range .1 to 2.5.
• Reasoning is temp stable.

Settings: CHAT / ROLEPLAY and/or SMOOTHER operation of this model:

In "KoboldCpp" or "oobabooga/text-generation-webui" or "Silly Tavern" ;

Set the "Smoothing_factor" to 1.5

: in KoboldCpp -> Settings->Samplers->Advanced-> "Smooth_F"

: in text-generation-webui -> parameters -> lower right.

: In Silly Tavern this is called: "Smoothing"

NOTE: For "text-generation-webui"

-> if using GGUFs you need to use "llama_HF" (which involves downloading some config files from the SOURCE version of this model)

Source versions (and config files) of my models are here:

OTHER OPTIONS:

• Increase rep pen to 1.1 to 1.15 (you don't need to do this if you use "smoothing_factor")

• If the interface/program you are using to run AI MODELS supports "Quadratic Sampling" ("smoothing") just make the adjustment as noted.
