BigWeave v33 105b

The BigWeave models aim to experimentally identify merge settings for increasing model performance. The version number merely tracks various attempts and is not a quality indicator. Only results demonstrating good performance are retained and shared.

Merge process

This is a self-merge of meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-70B-Instruct. Middle layers are duplicated and various matrices are scaled according to the template by jukofyork as shown here: https://github.com/arcee-ai/mergekit/issues/198#issuecomment-2079950009
