Note It takes a lot for a model to impress me nowadays, but this is leaps and bounds better than any other model I ever ran. However, it's definitely useless for RP and of little use for any kind of creative writing.

Note Great open source 24B model from Mistral. Passed most of my tests. Obedient, very good at abiding by the system prompt. But, a lot worse at creative writing than 22B, it suffers from the same repetitiveness as other Mistral models. It's more a task oriented LLM than a generalist one.

Note I don't normally look at 'mixture of experts' models, but that might have been a mistake. This one is really impressive. It's good both in creative writing and assistant roles. It's very good at handling complex prompts, and its writing style is surprisingly natural.
