Me during failed runs

14B-Qwen2.5-Freya-v1

I decided to mess around with training methods again, considering the re-emegence of methods like multi-step training. Some people began doing it again, and so, why not? Inspired by AshhLimaRP's methology but done it my way.

Freya-S1

• LoRA Trained on ~1.1GB of literature and raw text over Qwen 2.5's base model.
• Cleaned text and literature as best as I could, still, may have had issues here and there.

Freya-S2

• The first LoRA was applied over Qwen 2.5 Instruct, then I trained on top of that.
• Reduced LoRA rank because it's mainly instruct and other details I won't get into.

Recommended Model Settings | Look, I just use these, they work fine enough. I don't even know how DRY or other meme samplers work. Your system prompt matters more anyway.

Prompt Format: ChatML
Temperature: 1+ # I don't know, man.
min_p: 0.05

Training time in total was ~10 Hours on a 8xH100 Node, sponsored by the Government of Singapore or something. Thanks for the national service allowance, MHA.
