Ornith 1.5 35B GGUF model receives subtle update with changed weights

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A user on Reddit's r/LocalLLaMA subreddit has identified a subtle update to the Ornith 1.5 35B GGUF model files. The user discovered that the weights themselves have changed, along with the importance matrix and calibration metadata. Additionally, the file labels have been cleaned up, with new fields like 'license' and 'tags' added, while some previous versioning fields were removed. Despite these changes, the model's architecture, tokenizer, and context length remain the same, suggesting a re-quantization rather than a fundamental model alteration. AI

IMPACT Minor update to a specific model quantization may offer slight performance or metadata improvements for users.

RANK_REASON User-level observation of a minor update to an existing model file format, not a formal release from a frontier lab.
