#### Note about bitsandbytes
bitsandbytes >= 0.39 may not work on older NVIDIA GPUs. In that case, to use `--load-in-8bit`, you may have to downgrade like this:
* Linux: `pip install bitsandbytes==0.38.1`
* Windows: `pip install https://github.com/jllllll/bitsandbytes-windows-webui/raw/main/bitsandbytes-0.38.1-py3-none-any.whl`
