Worth installing(Strong adoption and recent activity)

Z80-μLM is a 2-bit quantized language model small enough to run on an 8-bit Z80 processor. Train conversational models in Python, export them as CP/M .COM binaries, and chat with your vintage computer.

Why this repo matters

Enables running quantized language models on Z80 processors, pushing the limits of retrocomputing.
Demonstrates advanced quantization and integer-only inference for extreme resource constraints.
Offers tools to train and export conversational AI models as CP/M binaries for vintage systems.
