Libraries

How to use Retreatcost/Darkstar-12B with Transformers:

# Use a pipeline as a high-level helper
from transformers import pipeline

pipe = pipeline("text-generation", model="Retreatcost/Darkstar-12B")

# Load model directly
from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM

tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("Retreatcost/Darkstar-12B")
model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("Retreatcost/Darkstar-12B")

Darkstar-12B

I've combined Violet-Lyra-Gutenberg-v2, mini-magnum-12b-v1.1 and MN-Dark-Planet-TITAN-12B using karcher.

Then I used Dark-Desires-12B-v1.0 as a base and merged it with Darkness-Incarnate-12B-Nemo-v2.2 using arcee_fusion.

These intermediate models were combined using nearswap.

Resulting model is pretty NSFW-heavy with graphic descriptions, foul language and tends to create spooky, horror-infused scenarios.

Sometimes shows refusals. Tried adding abliterated LoRa, while it totally worked, it also watered down the model a lot, so I decided to keep it as is.

Uses Mistral V7 Tekken.

This is a merge of pre-trained language models created using mergekit.
