BigBang-v1-MLX-Q4_K_M
This model was converted to MLX format from endless-frontier/BigBang-v1 using mlx_lm version 0.31.3.
Quantization: mixed_4_6 (equivalent to llama.cpp Q4_K_M). 4-bit base with higher bits applied to first/last 1/8 of layers, every 3rd layer, v_proj/down_proj, and lm_head.
Use with mlx-lm
from mlx_lm import load, generate
model, tokenizer = load("mlx-community/BigBang-v1-MLX-Q4_K_M")
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": "Hello!"}]
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, tokenize=False, add_generation_prompt=True)
response = generate(model, tokenizer, prompt=prompt, max_tokens=512)
Or via CLI:
python3 -m mlx_lm.chat --model mlx-community/BigBang-v1-MLX-Q4_K_M
