CANVAS 2D UNAVAILABLE
This demo draws a live quantization lab on a canvas.
Idea in one line: quantization rounds many FP16 weight values onto a few
representable INT levels, cutting memory roughly 2x to 4x while adding a small, measurable approximation error.
Sampling 4096 weights

Simplified on purpose. Round-to-nearest symmetric int on a seeded synthetic 64×64 tensor. Real quality depends on architecture, calibration, method (GPTQ, AWQ, NF4), kernels, activation and KV precision, and the task. Bit count alone does not predict usability. Memory counts weights plus group scales only. Downstream numbers are simulated, not a real LLM.
