Llama-3-Instruct-demi-merge-8B
This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using mergekit.
This merge aimed to be a compromise between the base and instruct models, to enable future merging and/or fine-tuning by thawing out the instruct model while keeping some of its strengths.
Built with Meta Llama 3.
