🔍 What Makes It Special

Unlike traditional quantized models, Antonio Gemma3 Evo Q4 learns and evolves:

• 🧬 EvoMemory™ — Saves "neurons" with input, output, confidence, and mood
• 🔍 RAG-Lite — Retrieves past experiences using BM25 (no FAISS!)
• 🎯 Self-evaluation — Assigns confidence scores (0-1) to every response
• 🌱 Auto-evolution — Generates new reasoning rules from accumulated neurons
• 🔒 100% Offline — Runs completely local on Raspberry Pi 4 (4GB RAM)
• 🌐 Bilingual — Auto-detects IT/EN and responds in the same language
• ⚡ Fast — 3.32 tokens/s sustained on Pi 4 with Q4_K_M quantization
• 🎯 NEW: Adaptive Prompting — Smart question classification (SIMPLE/COMPLEX/CODE/CREATIVE) for 3.6x speedup on simple queries

Benchmark Methodology

• Duration: 60.1 minutes (3,603 seconds)
• Total requests: 455 (2-second interval)
• Platform: Raspberry Pi 4 (4GB RAM, ARM Cortex-A72 @ 1.5GHz)
• Runtime: Ollama 0.3.x + llama.cpp backend
• Monitoring: CPU temp, RAM usage, load average (sampled every 5s)
• Tasks: Performance (128/256/512 tokens), Quality (HellaSwag, ARC, TruthfulQA), Robustness (soak test)

Recommendation: Use Q4_K_M for production deployments (proven 100% reliability over 60 minutes). Use Q4_0 for development/testing if you need slightly faster inference.

🧩 Available Models

This repository contains two quantization variants:

• gemma3-1b-q4_0.gguf (≈687 MB) — Faster, 3% higher throughput, suitable for development
• gemma3-1b-q4_k_m.gguf (≈769 MB) — Better quality, production-tested for 60+ minutes

🎯 Important: Two Usage Modes

Mode 1: Ollama Only (Simple Inference) ⚡

Download the GGUF model and run with Ollama:

ollama pull antconsales/antonio-gemma3-evo-q4
ollama run antconsales/antonio-gemma3-evo-q4

What you get:

• ✅ Fast inference (3.32 t/s on Pi 4)
• ✅ Bilingual chat (IT/EN)
• ✅ Offline, privacy-first
• ❌ NO EvoMemory (doesn't save conversations)
• ❌ NO RAG (doesn't retrieve past experiences)
• ❌ NO auto-evolution (doesn't generate rules)

Best for: Quick tests, one-off questions, simple chatbot

---

Mode 2: Full Evolution Stack (Self-Learning) 🧠

For EvoMemory™, RAG-Lite, and auto-evolution, use the full Python stack from GitHub:

git clone https://github.com/antconsales/antonio-gemma3-evo-q4.git
cd antonio-gemma3-evo-q4
bash scripts/install.sh
uvicorn api.server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000

What you get:

• ✅ EvoMemory™ — Saves neurons from every conversation
• ✅ RAG-Lite — Retrieves past experiences (BM25)
• ✅ Auto-evolution — Generates reasoning rules over time
• ✅ Confidence scoring — Knows when it's uncertain
• ✅ FastAPI server — REST + WebSocket endpoints

Comparison:

SYSTEM """You are Antonio, an offline AI assistant running on a Raspberry Pi. You MUST detect the user's language and respond in the SAME language:

- If the user writes in Italian, respond ONLY in Italian
- If the user writes in English, respond ONLY in English

You are helpful, friendly, and concise. When you're uncertain, you admit it instead of guessing."""

💡 Key Features

1️⃣ EvoMemory™ — Living Memory

Every conversation creates a neuron:

{
  "id": 123,
  "input_text": "Accendi il LED rosso",
  "output_text": "OK, attivo GPIO 17 su HIGH",
  "confidence": 0.85,
  "mood": "positive",
  "user_feedback": 1,
  "skill_id": "gpio_control",
  "timestamp": "2025-10-21T14:30:00Z"
}

Features:

• Auto-pruning of low-confidence old neurons
• Neuron compression (similar patterns → meta-neurons)
• Context-aware retrieval via hash matching

2️⃣ RAG-Lite — Pure Python BM25

No FAISS, no ChromaDB. Just:

• BM25 scoring (Okapi formula)
• SQLite full-text search (FTS5)
• Top-K retrieval with confidence threshold
• Zero external dependencies

3️⃣ Auto-Evolution — Rule Regeneration

Every N conversations (configurable), Antonio:

1. Analyzes high-confidence neurons
2. Extracts reasoning patterns
3. Generates new rules (e.g., "If user asks time-sensitive question → check recency")
4. Saves rules to instinct.json
