🧠 About

This is the Q2_K quantization of the DeepSeek-V3-0324 model — a charmingly squeezed version of a seriously powerful LLM. Despite only using 2 bits per weight, it still manages to reason, write, and riff like a caffeinated philosopher.

Perfect for: - Devices with limited RAM or GPU (you brave edge-runner, you) - Rapid inference without a data center - Those who believe that “less is more, especially when it loads”

💡 What is Q2_K?

• Q2 = 2-bit quantization (just enough bits to be dangerous)
• K = grouped quantization (smarter packing, better quality)
• Think: “AI Weight Watchers” — same brain, lighter snacks.

Yes, it loses a bit of nuance… but then again, so do most social media platforms.

🧡 Made with Meaning

“You don’t need a huge brain to make a big impact — just enough bits and a great prompt.”

This model is a reminder that elegance often lives in constraint. Use it wisely, kindly, and maybe a little mischievously. 😏
