 The key benefit of GGUF is that it is a extensible, future-proof format which stores more information about the model as metadata. It also includes significantly improved tokenization code, including for the first time full support for special tokens. This should improve performance, especially with models that use new special tokens and implement custom prompt templates.

+## How to run from Python code
+
+You can use GGUF models from Python using the [llama-cpp-python](https://github.com/abetlen/llama-cpp-python) or [ctransformers](https://github.com/marella/ctransformers) libraries.
+
+### How to load this model from Python using ctransformers
+
+#### First install the package
+
+```bash
+# Base ctransformers with no GPU acceleration
+pip install ctransformers>=0.2.24
+# Or with CUDA GPU acceleration
+pip install ctransformers[cuda]>=0.2.24
+# Or with ROCm GPU acceleration
+CT_HIPBLAS=1 pip install ctransformers>=0.2.24 --no-binary ctransformers
+# Or with Metal GPU acceleration for macOS systems
+CT_METAL=1 pip install ctransformers>=0.2.24 --no-binary ctransformers
+```
+
+#### Simple example code to load one of these GGUF models
+
+```python
+from ctransformers import AutoModelForCausalLM
+
+# Set gpu_layers to the number of layers to offload to GPU. Set to 0 if no GPU acceleration is available on your system.
+llm = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained("TheBloke/llama-2-13B-chat-limarp-v2-merged-GGML", model_file="llama-2-13b-chat-limarp-v2-merged.q4_K_M.gguf", model_type="llama", gpu_layers=50)
+
+print(llm("AI is going to"))
+```

+## How to use with LangChain
