at what point does quantization stop being a tradeoff and start being actual quality loss

<!-- SC_OFF --><div class="md"><p>Been running a few models locally at different quant levels and honestly the jump from Q5 to Q4 sometimes feels like nothing and other times it

I taught myself integer-only neural net training in Rust — and ran into a real quantization problem

<p>I'm a 10th grade student teaching myself Rust by building something instead of just reading theory. The project is called Green-AI — an attempt to explore more energy-efficient
