## What it is
AutoGPTQ is a Python library for quantizing large language models using the GPTQ weight-only quantization algorithm, with user-friendly APIs integrated into Hugging Face Transformers, Optimum, and PEFT. The project is now unmaintained, with users directed to its successor GPTQModel.

## Use cases
- quantize an LLM to 4-bit with GPTQ
- run GPTQ-quantized models on consumer GPUs
- reduce VRAM usage for llama inference
- load int4 quantized transformers models
- benchmark quantized vs fp16 inference speed

## When to choose
- you need to quantize or run GPTQ models on Linux or Windows with CUDA
- you want Hugging Face Transformers integration for GPTQ models

## When to avoid
- starting a new project - use the maintained GPTQModel fork instead
- you need macOS support or support for the latest model architectures
- you need bug fixes or ongoing maintenance

## Facets
- artifact type: library
- maturity: abandoned
- function: llm-inference, machine-learning, deep-learning
- domain: large-language-models, deep-learning, machine-learning
- platform: python, windows
- tags: quantization, gptq, transformers, pytorch, model-compression, unmaintained, natural-language-processing, linux, gpu
