Daredevil-8B

image/jpeg

Daredevil-8B is a mega-merge designed to maximize MMLU. On 27 May 24, it is the Llama 3 8B model with the highest MMLU score. From my experience, a high MMLU score is all you need with Llama 3 models.

It is a merge of the following models using LazyMergekit:

Thanks to nbeerbower, Hastagaras, openchat, Kukedlc, cstr, flammenai, and KingNish for their merges. Special thanks to Charles Goddard and Arcee.ai for MergeKit.

πŸ”Ž Applications

You can use it as an improved version of meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct.

This is a censored model. For an uncensored version, see mlabonne/Daredevil-8B-abliterated.

Tested on LM Studio using the "Llama 3" preset.
