WTF is This?

Sonya-7B is, at the time of writing, the #1 performing model in MT-Bench first turn, ahead of GPT-4, and overall the #2 model in MT-Bench, to the best of my knowledge. Sonya-7B should be a good all-purpose model for all tasks including assistant, RP, etc.

Sonya-7B has a similar structure to my previous model, Silicon-Maid-7B, and uses a very similar structure. It's a merge of xDAN-AI/xDAN-L1-Chat-RL-v1, Jan-Ai's Stealth v1.2, chargoddard/piano-medley-7b, NeverSleep/Noromaid-7B-v0.2, and athirdpath/NSFW_DPO_vmgb-7b. Sauce is below. Somehow, by combining these pieces, it substantially outscores any of its parents on MT-Bench.

I picked these models because:

• MT-Bench normally correlates well with real world model quality and xDAN performs well on it.
• Almost all models in the mix were Alpaca prompt formatted which gives prompt consistency.
• Stealth v1.2 has been a magic sprinkle that seems to increase my MT-Bench scores.
• I added RP models because it boosted the Writing and Roleplay benchmarks 👀

Based on the parent models, I expect this model to be used with an 8192 context window. Please use NTK scaling alpha of 2.6 to experimentally try out 16384 context.

Let me be candid: Despite the test scores, this model is NOT is a GPT killer. I think it's a very sharp model for a 7B, it probably punches way above its weight for a 7B, but it's still a 7B model. Even for a 7B model, I think it's quirky and has some weird outputs. Keep your expectations in check 😉

There was no additional training, finetuning, or DPO. This is a straight merger.

Prompt Template (Alpaca)

Below is an instruction that describes a task. Write a response that appropriately completes the request.

### Instruction:
{prompt}

### Response:

I found that this model performed worse with the xDAN prompt format so, despite the heavy weight of xDAN in this merger, I recommeend against its use.

If you'd like to replicate the MT-Bench run, please ensure that the Alpaca prompt template is applied to the model. I did this by putting "alpaca" in the model path to trigger the AlpacaAdapter.
