Mahou-1.2a-llama3-8B

Mahou is our attempt to build a production-ready conversational/roleplay LLM.

Future versions will be released iteratively and finetuned from flammen.ai conversational data.

Chat Format

This model has been trained to use ChatML format.

<|im_start|>system
{{system}}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>{{char}}
{{message}}<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>{{user}}
{{message}}<|im_end|>

Roleplay Format

• Speech without quotes.
• Actions in *asterisks*

*leans against wall cooly* so like, i just casted a super strong spell at magician academy today, not gonna lie, felt badass.

ST Settings

1. Use ChatML for the Context Template.
2. Turn on Instruct Mode for ChatML.
3. Use the following stopping strings: ["<", "|", "<|", "\n"]

Method

Finetuned using an A100 on Google Colab.
