 `bitsandbytes` enables accessible large language models via k-bit quantization for PyTorch. We provide three main features for dramatically reducing memory consumption for inference and training:
 
-* 8-bit optimizers uses block-wise quantization to maintain 32-bit performance at a small fraction of the memory cost.
-* LLM.int8() or 8-bit quantization enables large language model inference with only half the required memory and without any performance degradation. This method is based on vector-wise quantization to quantize most features to 8-bits and separately treating outliers with 16-bit matrix multiplication.
-* QLoRA or 4-bit quantization enables large language model training with several memory-saving techniques that don't compromise performance. This method quantizes a model to 4-bits and inserts a small set of trainable low-rank adaptation (LoRA) weights to allow training.

 The library includes quantization primitives for 8-bit & 4-bit operations, through `bitsandbytes.nn.Linear8bitLt` and `bitsandbytes.nn.Linear4bit` and 8-bit optimizers through `bitsandbytes.optim` module.
