How to run it
This is an MLX build for Apple silicon Macs; run it with Apple's MLX framework (mlx-lm for language models).
Plan for roughly 5 GB of memory to load it (our estimate from its size and format).
The model card on Hugging Face has the exact usage code.
Where to run it
On your own computer, free
Both load GGUF builds; for other formats, look for a GGUF version of this model.
In the cloud
Needs about 5 GB: a 24 GB GPU such as an RTX 4090 or RTX A5000 is enough.
