SanjiWatsuki/openchat-3.5-1210-starling-slerp

Model Description

This model uses the Slerp merge method from 2 models:

1. openchat/openchat-3.5-1210
2. berkeley-nest/Starling-LM-7B-alpha

• base model: openchat/openchat-3.5-1210

I SLERPed these two together because they're both OpenChat-ish models. Fundamentally, OpenChat-3.5-1210 appears to be trained similarly to OpenChat-3.5 but now with Feedback-Collection and a de-contaminated Capybara. Starling is OpenChat-3.5 but trained with a novel training method on the Nectar set.

My hope is that a SLERP between the two retains the benefits of both.
