The 'Ternary' 20B Model Everyone Downloaded Today Ships as a Two-Bit Package News

DeepGrove's Maple-Preview is being shared as a 20-billion-parameter ternary model that fits in about 5 gigabytes, but its native release is a 40GB BF16 repository and the small footprint belongs to a separate two-bit MLX build with no published ternary training recipe.

Maple-Preview (2-bit MLX build) Tool

DeepGrove's 20B mixture-of-experts model with about 1B active parameters per token, packaged for Apple Silicon at roughly 5.3GB. The build uses affine two-bit group quantisation with four-bit embeddings and output head, and its loader packs ternary values into two-bit codes. Note that the native BF16 repository is about 40.4GB, and DeepGrove publishes no ternary training recipe or independent evaluation.
