From the discussion
A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.
At which quantization? That's the only thing I want to know. EDIT: I think it's 2 bit? If so, would be curious to see the quality of the output. Not great, I think.
This is quite an obnoxious Readme.md with AI slop. It wraps around llama.cpp but without seeing what platform assumptions it makes its unclear for other readers whether this is worth testing.
