    But if that’s how you’re going to run it, why not also train it in that mode?

      That is a thing, and it’s called quantization aware training. Some open weight models like Gemma do it.

      The problem is that you need to re-train the whole model for that, and if you also want a full-quality version you need to train a lot more.

      It is still less precise, so it’ll still be worse quality than full precision, but it does reduce the effect.

            Is it, or is it not, AI slop? Why are you using so heavily markdown formatting? That is a telltale sign of an LLM being involved

              heavily markdown formatting

              They used one formatting mark, and it’s the most common. What are you smoking, and may I have some?
