# NanoGPT Personal Experiment |
|
|
|
|
|
This repository contains my personal experiment with training and fine-tuning a GPT-2 style language model. This project was undertaken as a learning exercise to understand transformer-based language models and explore the capabilities of modern AI architectures. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Model Description |
|
|
|
|
|
This model is based on the nanoGPT implementation, which is a minimal, clean implementation of GPT-2 style models. The architecture follows the original GPT-2 design principles while being more accessible and easier to understand. |
|
|
|
|
|
### Technical Details |
|
|
|
|
|
- Base Architecture: GPT-2 |
|
|
- Training Infrastructure: 8x A100 80GB GPUs |
|
|
- Parameters: ~124M (similar to GPT-2 small) |
|
|
|
|
|
### Training Process |
|
|
|
|
|
The model underwent a multi-stage training process: |
|
|
- Initial training on a subset of the OpenWebText dataset |
|
|
- Experimentation with different hyperparameters and optimization techniques |
|
|
|
|
|
### Features |
|
|
|
|
|
- Clean, minimal implementation of the GPT architecture |
|
|
- Efficient training utilizing modern GPU capabilities |
|
|
- Configurable generation parameters (temperature, top-k sampling) |
|
|
- Support for both direct text generation and interactive chat |
|
|
|
|
|
## Use Cases |
|
|
|
|
|
This model is primarily an experimental project and can be used for: |
|
|
- Educational purposes to understand transformer architectures |
|
|
- Text generation experiments |
|
|
- Research into language model behavior |
|
|
- Interactive chat experiments |
|
|
|
|
|
## Limitations |
|
|
|
|
|
As this is a personal experiment, please note: |
|
|
- The model may produce inconsistent or incorrect outputs |
|
|
- It's not intended for production use |
|
|
- Responses may be unpredictable or contain biases |
|
|
- Performance may vary significantly depending on the input |
|
|
|
|
|
## Development Context |
|
|
|
|
|
This project was developed as part of my personal exploration into AI/ML, specifically focusing on: |
|
|
- Understanding transformer architectures |
|
|
- Learning about large-scale model training |
|
|
- Experimenting with different training approaches |
|
|
- Gaining hands-on experience with modern AI infrastructure |
|

## Disclaimer |
|
|
|
|
|
This is a personal experimental project and should be treated as such. It's not intended for production use or as a replacement for more established language models. The primary goal was learning and experimentation. |
