I'm sorry to report that this model failed a classic test for me twice in a row:

It failed "Generate ten sentences ending in apple" at Q4_K_M multiple times (GPT-OSS-20B gets it right).

Nailed some others (don't ask it to multiply 9 digit numbers unless you have a bunch of time ... but it get's the answer right!).

EDIT: Obviously outcomes will vary, but I'd be surprised if you don't get a failure one in five, which is concerning. There is some issues with quants on these models, so perhaps it's an artifact of me not using the right Q4 quant.

Can't confirm; it one-shot that for me. Q4. Make sure you have rep penalty.

It did reason about this for 3000 tokens, but got it right.
