minbpe is a minimal, clean implementation of byte-level Byte Pair Encoding (BPE), the tokenization approach widely used in modern language models. It operates on UTF-8 encoded bytes rather than Unicode characters, which makes it robust to arbitrary text inputs and avoids needing a language-specific character vocabulary. The repository is structured as a teaching-oriented implementation that shows how to train a tokenizer by learning merge rules, then apply those merges to encode text into...

...Internally, it includes the core tokenizer logic (often implemented in Rust or efficient lower-level code), APIs for encoding, decoding, and counting tokens, and binding layers to Python (and sometimes other languages) for easy use.

autoresearch-mlx is an Apple Silicon–optimized implementation of the autoresearch framework that enables autonomous AI research loops to run natively on MLX without requiring PyTorch or CUDA dependencies. It maintains the core autoresearch structure, where an AI agent iteratively edits a training script, executes experiments under a fixed time budget, and evaluates results based on a defined metric such as validation bits per byte. The system is tailored for Apple hardware, leveraging...

Open-source pre-training implementation of Google's LaMDA research paper in PyTorch. The totally not sentient AI. This repository will cover the 2B parameter implementation of the pre-training architecture as that is likely what most can afford to train. You can review Google's latest blog post from 2022 which details LaMDA here. You can also view their previous blog post from 2021 on the model.
