DANTE-Mosaic-3.5B — GGUF Quantizations
GGUF quantized versions of OdaxAI/DANTE-Mosaic-3.5B for use with llama.cpp, LM Studio, Ollama, and other GGUF-compatible runtimes.
DANTE-Mosaic-3.5B is a multilingual foundation model by OdaxAI, trained in 21 A100-GPU-hours via generative cross-architecture distillation from the trillion-scale Kimi K2 teacher. #1 on MMLU and MMLU-Pro, #1 on GSM8K (tied Qwen3-4B-Base), #1 on HellaSwag — across the standard 3B–4B open-weight basket.
Available Quantizations
| File | Quant | Size | Use case |
|---|---|---|---|
DANTE-Mosaic-3.5B-Q4_K_M.gguf |
Q4_K_M | 1.92 GB | Recommended — best quality/size tradeoff |
DANTE-Mosaic-3.5B-Q5_K_M.gguf |
Q5_K_M | 2.21 GB | Higher quality, still runs on 8 GB RAM |
DANTE-Mosaic-3.5B-Q8_0.gguf |
Q8_0 | 3.28 GB | Near-lossless, for GPU inference |

★ DANTE evaluated on canonical 5-shot MMLU; peers use harder MMLU-CF (cloze). ᶜᶠ MMLU-CF. ⁺ Harder + variants. Peer numbers from the SmolLM3 technical report (Table 1), single harness run.
Wins vs. the basket: #1 MMLU (+11.7 pp over next-best), #1 MMLU-Pro, #1 GSM8K (tied Qwen3-4B-Base), #1 HellaSwag. Code (HumanEval/MBPP) is the honest gap — targeted in the next iteration.
