# skyxiaobaibai/Qwen1.5-1.8B-Chat-Q2_K-GGUF
This model was converted to GGUF format from [`Qwen/Qwen1.5-1.8B-Chat`](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen1.5-1.8B-Chat) using llama.cpp via the ggml.ai's [GGUF-my-repo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/ggml-org/gguf-my-repo) space.
Refer to the [original model card](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen1.5-1.8B-Chat) for more details on the model.

```bash
llama-cli --hf-repo skyxiaobaibai/Qwen1.5-1.8B-Chat-Q2_K-GGUF --model qwen1.5-1.8b-chat-q2_k.gguf -p "The meaning to life and the universe is"
```
