# Update: Both version have different presents (settings) to work well
Overall:

Sao10K Stheno > SMaid V0.3 > SMaid V0.1 in Chai Benchmark

SMaid V0.1 = Sao10K Stheno > SMaid V0.3 in my custom EQ bench (Sadness and deep thought and Depression test)

Disclaimed: same seed, same character card, same scenario. 4 times try for each models.

# Best of L3-8B merge series for me. I choose 2 best variants to publish.

[SMaid-V0.1](https://huggingface.co/Alsebay/L3-8B-SMaid-v0.1): More smart, understand well content, more novelwriting. I like this version.

SMaid-V0.3: Upgrade from v0.1. More talkative, active, energetic (wrong setting, lol). It more like Stheno in writting styles, a Stheno version have more data from LumiMaid. 

No V0.2 because I deleted it, it's a worst model of series.

I think Stheno and Lumumaid can be like a 'ying-yang', so I combine them, lol. Have test on Chaiverse, both of them got > 1995 elo score from begining. (Thanks Sao10K let me know about ChaiVerse :) )

SMaid = Stheno (it's very good) + LumiMaid (not too good, but the writing style is good)

**Recommend present (You can feedback if any setting is better)**

Temperature - 0.9-1.1
Min-P - 0.075-0.1
Top-K - 40-50
Top_P - 1
