  # GPT-NeoX-20B-Erebus
  ## Model description
  This is the second generation of the original Shinen made by Mr. Seeker. The full dataset consists of 6 different sources, all surrounding the "Adult" theme. The name "Erebus" comes from the greek mythology, also named "darkness". This is in line with Shin'en, or "deep abyss". For inquiries, please contact the KoboldAI community. **Warning: THIS model is NOT suitable for use by minors. The model will output X-rated content.**
  
  ## Training procedure
  GPT-NeoX-20B-Erebus was trained on a TPUv3-256 TPU pod using a heavily modified version of Ben Wang's Mesh Transformer JAX library, the original version of which was used by EleutherAI to train their GPT-J-6B model.
  
  ## Training data
  The data can be divided in 6 different datasets:
  - Literotica (everything with 4.5/5 or higher)
  - Sexstories (everything with 90 or higher)
  - Dataset-G (private dataset of X-rated stories)
  - Doc's Lab (all stories)
  - Pike Dataset (novels with "adult" rating)
  - SoFurry (collection of various animals)
  
  The dataset uses `[Genre: <comma-separated list of genres>]` for tagging.
  
  ## Limitations and biases
  Based on known problems with NLP technology, potential relevant factors include bias (gender, profession, race and religion). **Warning: This model has a very strong NSFW bias!**
