Quantized with more parameters is generally better than floating point with fewer parameters. If you can squeeze a 14b parameter model down to a 4-bit int quantization it’ll still generally outperform a 16-bit Floating Point 7b parameter equivalent.

Yeah, I did see something related to what you mentioned and I was quite interested. What about quantized models?
I don’t have any experience with them honestly so I can’t help you there
Appreciate you 👍👍

Interesting information mate, I’m documenting myself into the subject, thx for the help 👍👍
