Memory

Hugging Face does not list a weights size for this build, so there is no memory estimate.

Estimated from the size of the weights, plus a fifth for context and working memory and 2 GB for macOS and your apps. Long contexts need more.

Run it

Terminal · mlx-lm
$ pip install -U mlx-lm
$ mlx_lm.generate --model mlx-community/Apriel-1.5-15b-Thinker-4bit --prompt "Hello"
