./build/bin/llama-cli -hf llmware/bling-answer-tooldocker model run hf.co/llmware/bling-answer-toolbling-answer-tool is a quantized version of BLING Tiny-Llama 1B, with 4_K_M GGUF quantization, providing a very fast, very small inference implementation for use on CPUs.
bling-tiny-llama is a fact-based question-answering model, optimized for complex business documents.
To pull the model via API:
from huggingface_hub import snapshot_download
snapshot_download("llmware/bling-answer-tool", local_dir="/path/on/your/machine/", local_dir_use_symlinks=False)
Load in your favorite GGUF inference engine, or try with llmware as follows:
from llmware.models import ModelCatalog
model = ModelCatalog().load_model("bling-answer-tool")
response = model.inference(query, add_context=text_sample)
Note: please review config.json in the repository for prompt wrapping information, details on the model, and full test set.

We're not able to determine the quantization variants.
