Aura-8B

Introduction

Aura-8B is a state of the art dedicated roleplaying model designed to fulfill your every desire.

This finetune has seen several hundreds of millions of tokens of instruction and roleplaying data. A Kahneman-Tversky Optimization was applied as a Low Rank Adapter to give this model a unique output style.

Developed by Aura Industries, with contributions from Anthracite Org
