# Qwen3-Yoyo-V4-42B-A3B-Thinking-TOTAL-RECALL-TNG-IV-PKDick-V-qx65x-mlx

This series is a merge from the Star Trek TNG and Philip K Dick trained Total-Recall models by DavidAU.

The mxfp4 stands for Microscaling FP4, a next-generation 4-bit floating-point format:
- Format: Each value is stored in just 4 bits, following the E2M1 layout: 1 sign bit, 2 exponent bits, 1 mantissa bit per parameter.
- Block Structure: Instead of scaling each value independently, MXFP4 divides model data into small blocks (typically 32 3. elements) and assigns each block a single, shared 8‑bit exponential scaling factor a “microscaling” approach.
- Purpose: Dramatically reduce memory and compute requirements for training and deploying massive AI models, while preserving quality.

The Deckard(qx) series is a mixed precision quantization that aims for a more human-like behavior of the model.

The formula was inspired by my Nikon Noct Z 58mm F/0.95 with its human-like rendition, thin depth of field, and metaphor-inspiring patterns in the background blur.
- The qxXYn series have X bits for head and attention paths, Y bits for data.
- The head and shared experts were set up at high bits.
- The attention paths were enhanced in periodic intervals.
- The hi variant has high resolution quantization (group size 32)

We analyze the qx64x as a viable alternative to mxfp4, along with qx65x, where data was set at 5 bit

```bash
Model       Data Enhanced  Precision  Size(GB)  Required RAM
mxfp4:     4 bit     MXFP   32(high)     22.54  32GB
qx64x:     4 bit    6 bit   64(low)      25.79  48GB
qx65x:     5 bit    6 bit   64(low)      32.06  48GB
qx86x-hi:  6 bit    8 bit   32(high)     39.03  64GB
```

We present a comprehensive cognitive-performance vs. hardware-footprint trade-off analysis — which is exactly what we need to make deployment-level decisions for real-world use.

Let’s distill this into a clear comparison across four variants:

# 📊 Comparative Table (TNG-IV-PKDick-V Models)
```bash
Model	arc_challenge	arc_easy	boolq	hellaswag	openbookqa	piqa	winogrande	Size (GB)	Macs Supported
mxfp4		0.494		0.655		0.878		0.678	0.408		0.776	0.634		22.54 GB	🟢 32GB Macs
qx64x		0.518		0.667		0.880		0.685	0.428		0.777	0.637		25.79 GB	🟢 48GB Macs
qx65x		0.529		0.700 ✅	0.879		0.689	0.436 ✅	0.783	0.661 ✅	32.06 GB	🟢 48GB Macs
qx86x-hi	0.532		0.693		0.881		0.686	0.428		0.782	0.649		39.03 GB	🟢 64GB Macs
```

# 🔍 Deep Analysis: Trade-offs by Metric

🎯 ARC (Reasoning) — Most Sensitive to Compression
- qx65x → best (0.529) — 4-bit data is too lossy for long reasoning chains
- qx64x → 0.518 — acceptable for lightweight reasoning tasks
- mxfp4 → 0.494 — too compressed for ARC, especially arc_challenge

💡 Arc is a "precision task" — it needs high-bit attention. mxfp4’s 4-bit block scaling causes errors in chaining logic.

✅ Winogrande & Hellaswag — Most Resilient to Compression
- qx65x → 0.661 (Winogrande) 🚀 — best of all
- qx64x → 0.637 — still good, but less fluid
- mxfp4 → 0.634 — almost same as qx64x, but slightly worse

🔥 qx65x is the king of subtle cognition — even at 32GB, it outperforms mxfp4 on Winogrande (+0.027) and Hellaswag (+0.011).

🎯 This suggests 5-bit data is critical for pronoun tracking & causal inference.

🧪 OpenBookQA (Science + Ethics) — Sensitive to Over-Compression
- qx65x → 0.436 — best, improves on baseline (0.428)
- qx64x → 0.428 — same as baseline
- mxfp4 → 0.408 — significant drop

💡 OpenBookQA requires nuanced theory alignment. The 5-bit data in qx65x allows the model to retain subtle gradients needed for scientific reasoning.

🧩 PiQA (Physical Commonsense) — Robust to Compression, Slight Preference for qx65x
- qx65x → 0.783 ✅ — slight edge over qx86x-hi (0.782)
- qx64x → 0.777 — still very strong
- mxfp4 → 0.776 — almost identical

🌐 Why? PiQA relies on latent world models, which are robust to 4–5 bit data if attention and heads are preserved.

# 🖥️ Hardware & Deployment Viability
```bash
Model	Size (GB)	Mac Support		Use Case
mxfp4		22.54	✅ 32GB Macs	Edge deployment, real-time assistants
qx64x		25.79	✅ 48GB Macs	Balanced performance for general reasoning
qx65x		32.06	✅ 48GB Macs	Cognitive excellence in ambiguity, identity fluidity
qx86x-hi	39.03	✅ 64GB Macs	Premium performance, research-grade
```
💡 The qx65x variant at 32GB is the sweet spot — it fits on 48GB Macs, and outperforms both qx64x (on arc_easy, openbookqa, winogrande) and mxfp4 (by a large margin in Winogrande).

# 🧠 Cognitive Verdict: Which Model “Thinks” Like a Human?

Let’s map to human-level performance again:

```bash
Benchmark	Human-Level (Est.)	qx65x Score	% of Human
arc_easy			~0.85		0.700 ✅	82%
hellaswag			~0.75		0.689 ✅	92%
piqa				~0.82		0.783 ✅	95%
winogrande			~0.85		0.661 ✅	78%
```
🎯 qx65x is closest to human cognition across the board — especially in PiQA and Hellaswag.

✅ While qx86x-hi is slightly better in arc_challenge, it’s not worth the 7GB extra size for most applications — and qx65x even edges it out in arc_easy.

📈 Final Recommendation: Choosing the Right Variant

🔹 For Edge / Lightweight Deployment (32GB Macs):

✅ Use mxfp4
- Great for quick, commonsense tasks
- Acceptable drop in arc and openbookqa

🔹 For General Use / Balanced Reasoning (48GB Macs):

✅ Use qx64x
- 25.79 GB — fits on 48GB Macs
- Solid performance across all metrics

🔹 For Premium Cognitive Fluency (48GB Macs — Best Value):

🏆 Use qx65x
- 32.06 GB — still on 48GB Macs
- Outperforms all others in arc_easy, openbookqa, winogrande
- Best balance of size vs. human-like cognition

🔹 For Research / Maximum Performance (64GB Macs):

✅ qx86x-hi — if you need the absolute best, and have 64GB RAM.

# 🌿 The Literary Lens Returns

You said:

> “The formula was inspired by my Nikon Noct Z 58mm F/0.95 with its human-like rendition, thin depth of field, and metaphor-inspiring patterns in the background blur.”

Let’s map each variant to that lens:
- mxfp4 → very thin DoF — sharp on immediate context, blurred beyond
- qx64x → moderate DoF — sharp on key reasoning, slightly blurred on subtle tasks
- qx65x → perfect DoF — sharp where it matters, soft and metaphorical elsewhere
- qx86x-hi → overly sharp — loses the “metaphor-inspiring blur” that makes PKD and TNG human

🎞️ qx65x is the Deckard lens — human-like, balanced, poetic.

# 🏁 Conclusion: The qx65x is the Cognitive Champion

While mxfp4 enables wider deployment, and qx64x is a good middle ground — the real breakthrough is qx65x.

It:
- Fits on 48GB Macs (practical deployment)
- Outperforms qx86x-hi on arc_easy and winogrande
- Is closest to human-level reasoning in the most cognitively rich benchmarks

🌟 It’s not just a model — it’s a thinking mind optimized for human-like cognition, even under 5-bit data.
