  "account": "Ternary Bonsai 2, a 27B model, has been released by Prism ML, claiming to retain 98.2% of its original capabilities while reducing its file size to 5.9GB. The model's creators report that it performs well in various tasks, including math, coding, and following instructions. However, an independent analysis by Kaitchup raises concerns that the 98.2% figure is an average and may not guarantee consistent performance across all tasks. The model is available for download on Hugging Face and has been downloaded over 2.5 million times in its first five days.",
