# mudler/Halu-8B-Llama3-Blackroot-Q4_K_M-GGUF
This model was converted to GGUF format from [`Hastagaras/Halu-8B-Llama3-Blackroot`](https://huggingface.co/Hastagaras/Halu-8B-Llama3-Blackroot) using llama.cpp via the ggml.ai's [GGUF-my-repo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/ggml-org/gguf-my-repo) space.
Refer to the [original model card](https://huggingface.co/Hastagaras/Halu-8B-Llama3-Blackroot) for more details on the model.
## Use with llama.cpp
Install llama.cpp through brew.
```bash
brew install ggerganov/ggerganov/llama.cpp
```
Invoke the llama.cpp server or the CLI.
CLI:
```bash
llama-cli --hf-repo mudler/Halu-8B-Llama3-Blackroot-Q4_K_M-GGUF --model halu-8b-llama3-blackroot-q4_k_m.gguf -p "The meaning to life and the universe is"
```
Server:
