About

Dolphin 2.6 Mixtral 8x7B is a large language model fine-tuned from the Mixtral-8x7B base, known for its robust coding abilities and high compliance with user prompts. Despite not being tuned with Direct Preference Optimization, it performs exceptionally well in coding tasks due to extensive training with coding datasets, including MagiCoder. The model's architecture features a context window reduced to 16k, and training was carried out using techniques like qLoRA. However, it is uncensored, exposing potential ethical concerns and prompting caution for deployment without additional safeguards.
