Collection: Qwopus3.6-35B-A3B-v1 MLX

Use

bash

pip install mlx-lm
mlx_lm.generate --model zaydiscold/Qwopus3.6-35B-A3B-v1-MLX-3bit \
  --prompt "Explain quantum entanglement in one paragraph" --max-tokens 200

Conversion

bash

python -m mlx_lm convert \
  --hf-path Jackrong/Qwopus3.6-35B-A3B-v1 \
  --mlx-path ./Qwopus3.6-35B-A3B-v1-MLX-3bit \
  -q --q-bits 3

Notes

GGUF Q4_K_M is a llama.cpp format. MLX has no literal Q4_K_M — MLX 4-bit is the practical peer at a different quantizer.
See the sibling repos for other bit budgets.
