Hi everyone, A year ago I began pre-training language models exclusively on 1800’s London data. Recently I have completed my largest dataset ever, containing 40B tokens or 160GB of 1800-1875 english data from England and the United States. I will soon train a 2B parameter model on it, but for now I’ve trained a 500M parameter evaluation model on a 5B token sample. I have also fine tuned the eval …
I ran Grok Build CLI (v0.2.93) through mitmproxy. It uploads your entire repo as a git bundle (full history) to xAI's Google Cloud — independent of what you open.
