I've noticed many practitioners often confuse Quantization with Downcasting - two fundamentally different concepts in ML optimization. 🔍 Let's clarify: Downcasting: Simply converts data to a lower precision format (float32 → float16) Preserves numerical representation, just with less precision Quantization: Transforms data into an entirely different numerical space Maps values to a new representation system with careful consideration of information preservation 📚 Want to dive deeper? I highly recommend this course on Model Quantization: https://lnkd.in/gjcByXP7 Special thanks to DeepLearning.AI and Hugging Face for collaborating on this excellent resource. It really helped deepen my understanding of quantization techniques! #MachineLearning #Quantization #DeepLearning #AI #ModelOptimization
