This discussion compares two quantization methods for large language models: Bonsai (1-bit and Ternary) and ThinkingCap (2.5-bit). The conversation explores the trade-offs between the number of generated tokens, model accuracy, and model size. One user suggests that using an instruct-tuned model might mask the limitations of lower-bit quantization, but these limitations become apparent when complex reasoning is required. AI
