# shadow-clown-7B-dare

shadow-clown-7B-dare is a DARE merge of the following models using [mergekit](https://github.com/cg123/mergekit):
* [CorticalStack/pastiche-crown-clown-7b-dare-dpo](https://huggingface.co./CorticalStack/pastiche-crown-clown-7b-dare-dpo)
* [CultriX/NeuralTrix-7B-dpo](https://huggingface.co./CultriX/NeuralTrix-7B-dpo)
* [CorticalStack/neurotic-crown-clown-7b-ties](https://huggingface.co./CorticalStack/neurotic-crown-clown-7b-ties)

See the paper [Language Models are Super Mario: Absorbing Abilities from Homologous Models as a Free Lunch](https://arxiv.org/abs/2311.03099) for more on the method.
