Hemmingway-1 oQ4e (MLX)
oQ4e (enhanced/GPTQ) mixed-precision quantization of Altworld/Hemmingway-1, a 27B parameter hybrid-attention language model built on Qwen3.8-27B.
Upstream model: Altworld/Hemmingway-1 by Altworld, released under Apache-2.0.
Conversion: Quantized to MLX format using Hermes Agent with oMLX (oQ4e enhanced path with GPTQ weight optimization).

Quickstart
pip install -U mlx-lm
python3 -m mlx_lm.generate \
--model hermitdave/Hemmingway-1-oQ4e \
--prompt "Write a text to your landlord about the broken boiler." \
--max-tokens 512 --temp 1.0 --top-p 0.95
oMLX Inference
# Copy to oMLX models folder
cp -r ~/Projects/ml/models/Hemmingway-1-oQ4e ~/.omlx/models/hermitdave/
# Serve via oMLX
omlx serve --model hermitdave/Hemmingway-1-oQ4e
Benchmark Results (DeepEval, local run)
Head-to-head vs Ornith-1.5-35B oQ4e, measured on this quant with DeepEval GEval (LLM judge), run 2026-09-23, oMLX on M3 Max. 50 cases per model across 5 categories; message-not-memo sampled 3 generations per prompt.
| Category | Hemmingway-1 oQ4e | Ornith-1.5 oQ4e |
|---|---|---|
| Directness | 1.00 | 0.78 |
| Human-Likeness | 1.00 | 0.72 |
| Empathy (EQ) | 0.72 | 0.85 |
| Hard asks — Actionability | 0.64 | 0.53 |
| Hard asks — Confidence | 0.62 | 0.75 |
| Message Not Memo | 0.71 | 0.82 |
| Story Quality | 0.94 | 0.96 |
Story quality is on par with Ornith (0.94 vs 0.96) — an earlier run that showed a story gap used a 1024-token cap that truncated outputs before the message was written; with a 4096-token cap the gap disappears. ~5% of generations hit transient server errors and were excluded.
