Quantization: The Size vs Quality Trade-Off

Short summary

Quantization reduces AI model size while maintaining performance by trading precision. Hugging Face's Transformers.js library controls this trade-off with a single dtype parameter. Useful for deploying models in size-constrained environments.

• •Quantization shrinks models with minimal performance loss
• •Transformers.js provides simple dtype control for the trade-off
