An official quantization of [meta-llama/Llama-2-7b](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama/Llama-2-7b) using [PV-Tuning](https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.14852) on top of [AQLM](https://arxiv.org/abs/2401.06118).


For this quantization, we used 1 codebook of 16 bits for groups of 8 weights.

The 1x16g16 (1-bit) models are on the way, as soon as we update the inference lib with their respective kernels.
