This model mlx-community/MiniCPM5-2B-8bit was converted to MLX format from openbmb/MiniCPM5-2B using mlx-lm version 0.31.3 (8-bit, group size 64).
Use with mlx#
from mlx_lm import load, generate
model, tokenizer = load("mlx-community/MiniCPM5-2B-8bit")
prompt = "Hello, who are you?"
if tokenizer.chat_template is not None:
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
messages, add_generation_prompt=True
)
response = generate(model, tokenizer, prompt=prompt, verbose=True) Files 9 files · 2.68 GB Weights 2.67 GB (safetensors). Sizes and sha256 from the signed manifest.
