CineStill 800T (FF) A nighttime scene showing a glowing green neon sign viewed through a window. The sign reads “THE MUSIC STREET,” but the letters appear reversed because they are seen from behind the glass. The neon light reflects strongly on the surface, creating a bright green haze. Behind the sign, faint outlines of plants and a building with lit windows are visible, giving the scene an urban, atmospheric feeling.

CineStill 800T (FF) Image 3 – English Alt Text A paved walkway with embedded horizontal red LED light strips glowing at night. Several people walk across the area, but only their legs and feet are visible. The red lights contrast with the gray stone surface, creating a modern, graphic pattern that guides movement or adds decorative interest.

David Cronenberg, master of body horror movies, was born today (March 15) in 1943 (during World War II!)
I saw his films 'Crash' and 'Naked Lunch' early, around the same time, in 1997 or 1998. Since then, I've seen many more of his- I just counted, I've seen 13 of his 23 films, and I've loved all of them. I'm a huge fan. My favorite was Shivers for a while. I'm not sure what it is now. Gotta see those final 10!
Happy birthday, David. We love …

In late Middle English writing, 'a' and 'an' commonly were joined to the following noun,
if that word began with a vowel,
-- which caused confusion over how such words ought to be divided when written separately.
In 'nickname', 'newt', and British dialectal 'naunt',
the -n- belongs to a preceding indefinite article 'an' or possessive pronoun 'mine'.
My naunt for "mine aunt" is recorded from 13c.…

So to follow up on this, I've caught it in action. Models, when quantized a bit, just do a bit more poorly with short contexts. Even going from f32 (as trained) to bf16 (as usually run) to q8 tends to do okay for "normal" context windows. And q4 you start feeling like "this model is a little stupid and gets stuck sometimes” (it is! It's just that it's still mostly careening about in the space of "plausible" most of the time. Not good guesswork, but still in the zone). With long contexts, the probability of parameters collapsing to zero are higher, so the more context the more likelihood you are to see brokenness.
And then at Q2 (2 bits per parameter) or Q1, the model falls apart completely. Parameters collapse to zero easily. You start seeing "all work and no play makes jack a dull boy” sorts of behavior, with intense and unscrutinized repetition, followed by a hard stop when it just stops working.
And quantization is a parameter that a model vendor can turn relatively easily. (they have to regenerate the model from the base with more quantization, but it's a data transformation on the order of running a terabyte through a straightforward and fast process, not like training).
If you have 1000 customers and enough equipment to handle the requests of 700, going from bf16 to q8 is a no-brainer. Suddenly you can handle the load and have a little spare capacity. They get worse results, probably pay the same per token (or they're on a subscription that hides the cost anyway so you are even freer to make trade-offs. There's a reason that subscription products are kinda poorly described.)
It's also possible for them to vary this across a day: use models during quieter periods? Maybe you get an instance running a bf16 quantization. If you use it during a high use period? You get a Q4 model.
Or intelligent routing is possible. No idea if anyone is doing this, but if they monitor what you send a bit, and you generally shoot for an expensive model for simple requests? They could totally substitute a highly quantized version of the model to answer the question.
There are •so many tricks• that can be pulled here. Some of them very reasonable to make, some of them treading into outright misleading or fraudulent, and it's weirdly hard to draw the line between them.
