Llama 3 Fantasy Writer 8B

This is llama 3 8b instruct trained on book data, r64, 8k context, 5e-5 lr, 3 epochs.

TLDR

Keep your temperatures down. 0.5 to 0.7 seem good. I usually use a little min-p and smoothing as well.

<|start_header_id|>system<|end_header_id|>

As the writer assistant, continue the story.
// Title <your story title>
// Author <an author>
// Tags <three to five categories, comma delimited>
<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>user<|end_header_id|>
// Chapter 1
<|eot_id|><|start_header_id|>assstant<|end_header_id|>

I used one of these prompts as the system prompt for each sample.

system_format = """{0}
// Title {1}

User Turns

User turns are currently broken down into three groups: Chapter, Continue, Story

• chapter_format = "// Chapter {0}"
• continue_format = "// Continue"
• the model was trained by taking 25% of the turns, and putting the first sentence in the user block. Any uncommented line should be considered story.
