Background
StarMan was first published in Australia on 30 October 1999 by Voyager in paperback format.[2] It was later released in the United States and the United Kingdom in both hardback and paperback formats.[1] StarMan won the 1996 Aurealis Award for best fantasy novel in a three way tie with Douglass' other novel Enchanter and Jack Dann's The Memory Cathedral.[3]
gollark: Int8 apparently causes it to just output random noise and I never got round to trying quantisation aware training for it.
gollark: It's quite strange that apparently BERT can be statically quantized without any extra training and retains decent accuracy but GPT-Neo emits nonsense going through the same process.
gollark: I was looking into quantization-aware training a while ago, but on the 125M model, and running that for a bit made it produce English-looking nonsense instead of random noise.
gollark: I think there's technically a way to swap bits of the model in and out of VRAM but it would still be quite slow.
gollark: You need a recent GPU with something like 16GB of VRAM.
