From the discussion
A few top-level comments from Hacker News, shortened. Read the full thread on Hacker News.
I honestly believe that these neat projects (smallest possible, locally run LLMs) are the real future of AI on the long run.
I might have missed it in the readme, but what hardware did the training take place on? This is really neat.
This is incredibly cool! Fascinating to see looped transformers be necessary for mini-Doom, but not for simpler games.
