+**SqueezeLLM** is a post-training quantization framework that incorporates a new method called Dense-and-Sparse Quantization to enable efficient LLM serving.
+
+**TLDR:** Deploying LLMs is difficult due to their large memory size. This can be addressed with reduced precision quantization. 
+But a naive method hurts performance. We address this with a new Dense-and-Sparse Quantization method. 
+Dense-and-Sparse splits weight matrices into two components: A dense component that can be heavily quantized without affecting model performance, 
+as well as a sparse part that preserves sensitive and outlier parts of the weight matrices With this approach, 
+we are able to serve larger models with smaller memory footprint, the same latency, and yet higher accuracy and quality. 
+For more details please check out our [paper](https://arxiv.org/pdf/2306.07629.pdf).
