This model granite-4.1-8b-FlintStones-V1-mxfp8-mlx was converted to MLX format from DavidAU/granite-4.1-8b-FlintStones-V1 using mlx-lm version 0.31.3.
Use with mlx
pip install mlx-lm
from mlx_lm import load, generate
model, tokenizer = load("granite-4.1-8b-FlintStones-V1-mxfp8-mlx")
prompt = "hello"
if tokenizer.chat_template is not None:
messages = [{"role": "user", "content": prompt}]
prompt = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(
messages, add_generation_prompt=True, return_dict=False,
)
response = generate(model, tokenizer, prompt=prompt, verbose=True)
