Model Overview

Naphula/Quill-v1-abliterated is a 9 billion parameter model developed by Naphula, primarily intended for experimental testing within model merging workflows. This specific iteration has not been ablated using MPOA (Memory-Preserving Orthogonal Ablation), which the developer notes could lead to potential cognitive degradation or unexpected outputs.

Key Characteristics

• Parameter Count: 9 billion parameters.
• Context Length: Supports a context length of 16384 tokens.
• Ablation Status: This version is explicitly stated as not having undergone MPOA ablation.
• Purpose: Created for internal testing to observe its behavior within a 'psycho merge' context.

Usage Recommendations

• Not for Direct Merging: The developer strongly advises against using this model directly in merges due to its unablated state and potential for bugged output.
• Post-Merge Ablation: It is recommended that models be merged first, and then ablated using methods like norm-preserving biprojected abliteration for optimal performance and stability.
