# Gemma3-Callous-Calla-4B — **MLX** builds (Apple Silicon)

This repo hosts **MLX-converted** variants of **Daizee/Gemma3-Callous-Calla-4B** for fast, local inference on Apple Silicon (M-series).  
Tokenizer/config are included at the repo root. MLX weight folders live under `mlx/`.

> **Note on vocab padding:** For MLX compatibility, the tokenizer/embeddings were padded to the next multiple of 64 tokens.  
> In this build: **262,208 tokens** (added 64 placeholder tokens named `<pad_ex_*>`).

## Variants

| Path         | Bits | Group Size | Notes                              |
|--------------|------|------------|------------------------------------|
| `mlx/g128/`  | int4 | 128        | Smallest & fastest                 |
| `mlx/g64/`   | int4 | 64         | Slightly larger, often steadier    |
| `mlx/int8/`  | 8    | —          | Closest to fp16 quality (slower)   |
