This model aims to find out, as a multi-stage merge where 3 out of 4 steps are fusions: * A fusion of [Lamarck-14B-v0.7](http://huggingface.co/sometimesanotion/Lamarck-14B-v0.7) and @suayptalha's [Lamarckvergence SLERP merge](http://huggingface.co/suayptalha/Lamarckvergence-14B) of Lamarck-14B-v0.7 and [Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS](http://huggingface.co/sometimesanotion/Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS). * A SLERP of Lamarck-14B-v0.7-Fusionvergence with Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS, the latter emphasized in later layers. * A fusion of @jpacifico's [Chocolatine-2-14B-Instruct-v2.0.3](http://huggingface.co/jpacifico/Chocolatine-2-14B-Instruct-v2.0.3), itself a finetune of Arcee's (https://huggingface.co/arcee-ai/Virtuoso-Small-v2) with Lamarck-14B-v0.7 and Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS, fusion-merged with - you guessed it - Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS * A fusion of the previous two. I've seen strong prose from this model, which is natural considering its re-emphasis of Qwenvergence-14B-v12-Prose-DS. A full evaluation will be cued shortly. This is actually a lot simpler than a mainline Lamarck release, and where it fits for efforts towards a Lamarck v0.8 depends greatly on evaluation and feedback.
