When Less is More: 8-bit Quantization Improves Continual Learning in Large Language Models

arXiv:2512.18934v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Catastrophic forgetting poses a fundamental challenge in continual learning, particularly when models are quantized for deployment efficiency. We systematically investigate the interplay between quantization precision (FP16, INT8, INT4) and replay buffer strategies in large language models, revealing unexpected dynamics. While…
