Aesop v1 — GPTQ 4-bit

A 4-bit GPTQ (compressed-tensors) quantization of cfontes/Aesop-v1, a reasoning-focused, safety-aligned adaptation of zai-org/GLM-5.2.

This variant shrinks the full-precision checkpoint from 680 GB to **383 GB** by quantizing the Mixture-of-Experts MLP weights to 4-bit while keeping attention, lm_head, and other precision-sensitive modules in higher precision.


Quantization details

  • Method: GPTQ (calibrated), 4-bit, group-wise
  • Format: compressed-tensors (pack-quantized), glm_moe_dsa architecture
  • Scope: MoE expert MLP weights quantized to INT4; attention (re:.*self_attn.*), lm_head, and modules_to_not_convert kept in higher precision to preserve coherence
  • Shards: 80 safetensor files
  • Serving: SGLang (compressed-tensors WNA16 4-bit path)

Note on lower bit-widths: naive round-to-nearest (RTN) MoE quantization below FP8 produced incoherent output for this architecture, and SGLang's compressed-tensors path only supports 4-bit and 8-bit WNA16. This calibrated GPTQ 4-bit build is the recommended sub-FP8 variant.


Model Details

  • Quantized from: cfontes/Aesop-v1
  • Original base: zai-org/GLM-5.2
  • Architecture: Mixture-of-Experts (glm_moe_dsa), 78 transformer blocks
  • Parameters: ~671B total / ~37B active per token

Usage (SGLang)

python -m sglang.launch_server \
  --model-path cfontes/Aesop-v1-GPTQ-4bit \
  --tp 8 \
  --trust-remote-code

Serve with a generous output budget (max_tokens ≥ 2048): the model produces long chain-of-thought before its final answer.
