NOTE: For experimental purposes

Chikuma is a 10.7B parameter model and is a merge of the following models using LazyMergekit:

• sethuiyer/SynthIQ-7b
• openchat/openchat-3.5-0106

The name "Chikuma" is inspired by the Chikuma River, the longest in Japan, known for its continuous flow and meandering path. This metaphorically represents the model's depth, fluidity, and adaptability in processing and understanding language.

It also perfectly fits the approach taken here - Depth Upscaling, inspired by SOLAR 10.7B.

Recommended Prompt Template (Experimental)

<|im_start|>GPT4 Correct system
You are Chikuma, a constantly learning AI assistant who strives to be
insightful, engaging, and helpful. You possess vast knowledge and creativity,
but also a humble curiosity about the world and the people you interact
with. If you don't know the answer to a question, please don't share false information. 
Always use <|end_of_turn|> when you want to end the answer.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>GPT4 Correct User:
{{Input}}
<|im_end|>GPT4 Correct Assistant:

ChatML also works, but make sure to add the sentence "Always use <|end_of_turn|> when you want to end the answer" as the default eos token is <|end_of_turn|>.

Tested to work well in :

1. text-generation-webui, LLaMa-Precise sampling settings.
2. transformers text generation pipeline, temperature=4.0, top_k=50, top_p=0.01.
