Eamon2009/Transformer-language-model
An educational implementation of a GPT-style language model built from scratch using PyTorch . No pre-trained weights. No fine-tuning,can be trained on $300 laptop
This project helps you understand how language models learn to generate text by letting you train a small, GPT-style model from scratch. You provide a plain text file, like children's stories, and it outputs new, similar story-like text. This is designed for educators, students, or hobbyists interested in the fundamentals of AI text generation.
Use this if you want to learn the mechanics of how a transformer language model processes text and generates new content without relying on pre-built models or complex setups.
Not ideal if you need a production-ready tool for generating high-quality, long-form, or domain-specific text, as this is for educational purposes and produces simple narrative.
