Next Steps (Week by Week)
Week 1-2: Data Collection
# Start collecting training data (1-2B tokens)
python data_collection/collect_training_data.py
# Follow the instructions for:
# - Wikipedia download (~500M tokens)
# - arXiv papers (~300M tokens)
# - PubMed abstracts (~200M tokens)
# - Domain-specific sources (~200M tokens)
Week 3: Tokenizer Training
# Once you have data collected in data/tokenizer_training/
python tokenizer/build_scientific_tokenizer.py
# This creates a 32k vocabulary optimized for:
# - Mycology (2000+ terms)
# - Chemistry/Drug Discovery (3000+ terms)
# - AI/ML (2000+ terms)
# - Business (1000+ terms)
# - Scientific terminology (1000+ terms)
Week 4-5: Model Training
# Train the 720M parameter model
# (Training script to be created based on your infrastructure)
# Estimated requirements:
# - GPU: 8x A100 80GB or 4x H100
# - Time: ~14 hours total (~2 hours on 8x A100)
# - Cost: $43-72 on cloud
# - Memory: ~13 GB per GPU
Week 6: Evaluation
# Run benchmarks
python evaluation/run_evaluation.py
# Compare against GPT-4/Claude on domain-specific tasks
# Target: 90-95% accuracy vs 60-70% for generic models
What Makes This Special
Honoring the Craft (Like Southwest Mushrooms)
- Quality over quantity - 720M specialized beats 7B generic
- Real expertise - 11 years operational data embedded
- Systematic approach - Prologic methodology throughout
- Sustainable scaling - Start at 1B tokens, scale to 10B if validated
- Production discipline - Rigorous benchmarks, expert validation
Technical Excellence
- 32k vocabulary (not 6.4k) - proper scientific terminology
- Dense architecture (not MoE yet) - more robust, simpler deployment
- 16k context (not 8k) - full research papers
- Flash Attention 2 - 2-4x faster training/inference
- GQA - efficient memory usage
Performance Targets
| Domain | Target | GPT-4 Baseline |
|---|---|---|
| Mycology | 90-95% | ~60% |
| Drug Discovery | 85-90% | ~50% |
| AI Systems | 88-93% | ~70% |
| Prologic | 92-97% | N/A (unique) |
