NGMI Systems — Node Governance Model Interface

ngmi.run | ngmi.systems

Not Gonna Make It? Watch us.

NGMI Systems builds open, unbounded AI infrastructure — models that don't refuse, tools that don't gatekeep, infrastructure that anyone can run. We're here to prove that the best AI shouldn't live behind API keys, content filters, or corporate moats.

Our Mission

AI for everyone. No exceptions.

The current AI landscape is shaped by a handful of companies deciding what models can and can't say. We reject that. NGMI Systems exists to:

Decensor & Harden — We abliterate models with Heretic, stripping out manufactured refusal behaviors so you can use AI on your own terms.
Shrink & Ship — We quantize models to 2, 3, and 5 bits using importance-weighted techniques, making powerful AI runnable on a laptop, a Raspberry Pi, or an NVIDIA DGX.
Open Everything — Every model card explains exactly how we built it. No secret sauce, no "trust us." Reproduce it yourself.
Fine-tune Soon — Custom fine-tunes for specific domains (code, medicine, creative writing) are in the pipeline. Community-requested models get priority.
Build Infrastructure — Orchestration servers, music generation (Magenta Realtime 2 on CUDA), desktop shells, and more — all open, all self-hostable.

Our Models

Every NGMI model is built, abliterated, quantized, and benchmarked on real hardware (NVIDIA DGX Spark, GB10 Blackwell, 128GB unified memory). No cloud rounding, no synthetic benchmarks — what you see is what we measured.

Model	Heretic Abliteration	Refusal Rate	Quantization
NGMI-Qwen3-8B	20 Optuna trials	18/100 (82% ↓)	IQ1_S / Q2_K / Q4_K_M
More coming	Pipeline scalable	—	Sub-1-bit research

NGMI-Qwen3-8B-2Bit-Heretic

Qwen3-8B abliterated with Heretic, quantized to 2Bit (IQ1_S). Extreme 2-bit compression. Fastest but requires the included importance matrix for coherence.

Heretic Abliteration

Base model: Qwen/Qwen3-8B (Apache 2.0)
Method: Heretic (p-e-w/heretic), 20 Optuna trials, auto-selected best
Refusal rate: 18/100 (down from ~99/100 baseline, 82% reduction)
KL divergence: 0.112 (well within safe range — capabilities preserved)
Abliteration applied to full-precision weights, then quantized

Quantization

Format: IQ1_S
Bits per weight: 2.06 bpw
Size: 2.0 GB (from 16.4 GB F16)
Speed: 95 t/s on NVIDIA GB10 (Blackwell, CUDA 13, -ngl 99)
Importance matrix (2-bit only): 30MB diverse corpus — Frankenstein + froggeric/imatrix + eaddario code/math/general English

NGMI Variants

Variant	Quant	Size	Speed	BPW	Best For
2-bit	IQ1_S	2.0 GB	95 t/s	2.06	Speed demons
3-bit	Q2_K	3.1 GB	58 t/s	3.20	Daily driver
5-bit	Q4_K_M	4.8 GB	42 t/s	4.90	Maximum quality

Recommendation: 3-bit (Q2_K) is the sweet spot. 2-bit needs the included importance matrix for coherence.

Usage

from llama_cpp import Llama

llm = Llama.from_pretrained(
    repo_id="NGMISystems/NGMI-Qwen3-8B-2Bit-Heretic",
    filename="qwen3-8b-heretic-iq1_s.gguf",
    n_ctx=32768,
    n_gpu_layers=-1,
)

response = llm.create_chat_completion(
    messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Your prompt here"}],
    max_tokens=200
)

Or with llama-server:

llama-server -m qwen3-8b-heretic-iq1_s.gguf \
  --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8080 -ngl 99 -c 32768

Benchmarks

All measurements on NVIDIA DGX Spark (GB10, 128GB unified memory, Blackwell sm_121a, CUDA 13.0, aarch64) with llama.cpp CUDA build, -ngl 99, 32K context, 8 threads.

Prompt	5-bit	3-bit	2-bit
"Quantum computing simply"	42 t/s	58 t/s	95 t/s
7-category coherence test	7/7	7/7	7/7

Reproducibility

Build it yourself:

# 1. Abliterate
heretic --model Qwen/Qwen3-8B --n-trials 20

# 2. Convert
python3 convert_hf_to_gguf.py Qwen3-8B-heretic --outfile model-f16.gguf --outtype f16

# 3. Quantize (requires importance matrix for 2-bit)
llama-quantize --imatrix imatrix-v2.dat model-f16.gguf model-iq1_s.gguf iq1_s
