The QAD build landed at 13:53 UTC on August 19 alongside the normal Q4_0 through Q8_0 ladder. Commenter Chromix_ flagged that it was built without an imatrix and its token embeddings were quantized at Q6_K rather than Q4_0, which may work against the QAT-style training the file is supposed to embody. (r/LocalLLaMA) There's an open discussion on the repo. Wait for it to resolve before you deploy this one.
