## How the score was worked out Each result implies a score on its own, after adjusting for how hard that test is and who ran it. The model's score is their weighted average, with a small pull toward the middle for thinly tested models. Each test's weight is its *counts* column above; here it is added up by who ran the tests.

Install llama.cpp. Homebrew and winget installs name the commands llama-cli and llama-server instead. [Other ways to install](https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/blob/master/docs/install.md) ```sh # macOS / Linux curl -LsSf https://llama.app/install.sh | sh # Windows irm https://llama.app/install.ps1 | iex ``` 2. Run Granite 8B Code Instruct (4K) (Q4_K_M, needs ~4.88 GB, from [huggingface.co/ibm-granite](https://huggingface.co/ibm-granite/granite-8b-code-instruct-4k-GGUF/tree/7f03f9f5dba8c4be26491d14c2fca861aa0c4ec1)) ```sh llama cli -hf ibm-granite/granite-8b-code-instruct-4k-GGUF:Q4_K_M ``` 3. Or start a local server and open the address it prints (http://localhost:9931) ```sh llama serve -hf ibm-granite/granite-8b-code-instruct-4k-GGUF:Q4_K_M ``` ### LM Studio 1. Install LM Studio. Open the app once before using the lms command. [Download it (macOS / Windows / Linux)](https://lmstudio.ai/download) 2. Run Granite 8B Code Instruct (4K) (Q4_K_M, needs ~4.88 GB, from [huggingface.co/ibm-granite](https://huggingface.co/ibm-granite/granite-8b-code-instruct-4k-GGUF/tree/7f03f9f5dba8c4be26491d14c2fca861aa0c4ec1)) ```sh lms get https://huggingface.co/ibm-granite/granite-8b-code-instruct-4k-GGUF@Q4_K_M -y ``` 3. Then run lms ls to see its name, and lms chat followed by that name ### Ollama 1. Install Ollama. [Download it (macOS / Windows)](https://ollama.com/download) ```sh # Linux curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh ``` 2. Run Granite 8B Code Instruct (4K) (Q4_K_M, needs ~4.88 GB, from [huggingface.co/ibm-granite](https://huggingface.co/ibm-granite/granite-8b-code-instruct-4k-GGUF/tree/7f03f9f5dba8c4be26491d14c2fca861aa0c4ec1)) ```sh ollama run hf.co/ibm-granite/granite-8b-code-instruct-4k-GGUF:Q4_K_M ``` Model repository and documentation: [huggingface.co/ibm-granite](https://huggingface.co/ibm-granite/granite-8b-code-instruct-4k) [interactive version](https://whatmodel.sh/model/granite-8b-code-instruct-4k) · [JSON](https://whatmodel.sh/api?format=json&all=1)
