# Model Card for Quantized Llama3-4x8B-Time-Agents

## Model Description

This model is a quantized version of the Llama3-4x8B-Time-Agents, optimized for efficient inference. The model leverages 4-bit precision quantization, substantially enhancing computational efficiency by reducing memory demands and accelerating response times, making it particularly well-suited for deployment in resource-constrained environments.

### Technical Specifications

- **Model Type:** Transformer-based Quantized Model
- **Quantization Level:** 4-bit (Q4_K_M)
- **Architecture:** Retains the transformer architecture optimized for time-sensitive and multi-agent systems.
- **Quantization Tool Used:** llamacpp (a custom tool based on llama.cpp for model quantization)
- **Performance Impact:** Reduced precision with a moderate impact on accuracy and a significant increase in inference speed.

## Usage

This quantized model is ideal for applications requiring fast response times, such as mobile or embedded devices and on-premises servers without dedicated GPU capabilities.

### Quick Start

Code for inference will be published soon.

## Limitations and Ethical Considerations

- **Bias and Fairness:** This model, like any AI, may carry biases from its training data. It is crucial to evaluate its performance in specific contexts.
- **Quantization Effects:** The reduced precision might affect nuanced understanding and generation, particularly in complex scenarios.

## Environmental Impact

The model's quantization reduces computational demands, lowering the environmental impact associated with its operation, specifically in terms of energy consumption and carbon footprint.
