aufklarer/PersonaPlex-7B-MLX-8bit

PersonaPlex-7B MLX 8-bit

PersonaPlex 7B full-duplex speech-to-speech model converted to MLX safetensors with 8-bit quantization for Apple Silicon.

Converted from nvidia/personaplex-7b-v1 (based on Kyutai Moshi architecture).

Swift inference: ivan-digital/qwen3-asr-swift
