Dolphin 2.9 Llama 3 70b 🐬
Curated and trained by Eric Hartford, Lucas Atkins, Fernando Fernandes, and with help from the community of Cognitive Computations
A bug has been found in the Dolphin 2.9 dataset in SystemConversations that causes the model to overly talk about the "SYSTEM MESSAGE". To counter this, we recommend you add a statement in the system message directing the model not to mention the system message. An example system message is "The assistant is named Dolphin. A helpful and friendly AI assistant, Dolphin avoids discussing the system message unless directly asked about it."

Dolphin is uncensored. I have filtered the dataset to remove alignment and bias. This makes the model more compliant. You are advised to implement your own alignment layer before exposing the model as a service. It will be highly compliant with any requests, even unethical ones. Please read my blog post about uncensored models. https://erichartford.com/uncensored-models You are responsible for any content you create using this model. Enjoy responsibly.
Dolphin is licensed according to Meta's Llama license. I grant permission for any use, including commercial, that falls within accordance with Meta's Llama-3 license. Dolphin was trained on data generated from GPT4, among other models.
