These are SuperHOT GGMLs with an increased context length. SuperHOT is a new system that employs RoPE to expand context beyond what was originally possible for a model. It was discovered and developed by kaiokendev.
In order to use the increased context length, you can presently use:
Support is also expected to come to llama.cpp, however it is still being worked on and there is currently no ETA for that.
To use the increased context with KoboldCpp and (when supported) llama.cpp, simply use --contextsize to set the desired context, eg --contextsize 4096 or --contextsize 8192.
These GGMLs will work with any llama.cpp-compatible GGML client that supports k-quants.
However the increased context length won't work without specific support. See the note in the introduction for details on using increased context.
Explanation of the new k-quant methods
The new methods available are:
GGML_TYPE_Q2_K - "type-1" 2-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weight. Block scales and mins are quantized with 4 bits. This ends up effectively using 2.5625 bits per weight (bpw)
GGML_TYPE_Q3_K - "type-0" 3-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 6 bits. This end up using 3.4375 bpw.
GGML_TYPE_Q4_K - "type-1" 4-bit quantization in super-blocks containing 8 blocks, each block having 32 weights. Scales and mins are quantized with 6 bits. This ends up using 4.5 bpw.
GGML_TYPE_Q5_K - "type-1" 5-bit quantization. Same super-block structure as GGML_TYPE_Q4_K resulting in 5.5 bpw
GGML_TYPE_Q6_K - "type-0" 6-bit quantization. Super-blocks with 16 blocks, each block having 16 weights. Scales are quantized with 8 bits. This ends up using 6.5625 bpw
GGML_TYPE_Q8_K - "type-0" 8-bit quantization. Only used for quantizing intermediate results. The difference to the existing Q8_0 is that the block size is 256. All 2-6 bit dot products are implemented for this quantization type.

Note: the above RAM figures assume no GPU offloading. If layers are offloaded to the GPU, this will reduce RAM usage and use VRAM instead.
How to run in koboldcpp
On Linux I use the following command line to launch the KoboldCpp UI with OpenCL aceleration and a context size of 4096:
I've had a lot of people ask if they can contribute. I enjoy providing models and helping people, and would love to be able to spend even more time doing it, as well as expanding into new projects like fine tuning/training.
If you're able and willing to contribute it will be most gratefully received and will help me to keep providing more models, and to start work on new AI projects.
Donaters will get priority support on any and all AI/LLM/model questions and requests, access to a private Discord room, plus other benefits.

Original model card: Kaio Ken's SuperHOT 8K
SuperHOT Prototype 2 w/ 8K Context
This is a second prototype of SuperHOT, this time 30B with 8K context and no RLHF, using the same technique described in the github blog.
Tests have shown that the model does indeed leverage the extended context at 8K.
You will need to use either the monkeypatch or, if you are already using the monkeypatch, change the scaling factor to 0.25 and the maximum sequence length to 8192
