Interactive 3D and 2D Visualization of GPT-2
I’ve been building an interactive 3D + 2D visualization of GPT-2. It displays real activations and attention scores extracted from GPT-2 Small (124M) during a forward pass. The goal is to make it easier to learn how LLMs work by showing what is happening inside the model. The 3D part is built with Three.js, and the 2D part is built with plain HTML/CSS/JS. Would love to hear your thoughts or feedback!
In plain words
This tool provides an interactive 3D and 2D visualization of GPT-2 Small, displaying real activations and attention scores during model inference. It is designed for students and researchers who want to understand how large language models work by observing their internal operations. The visualization uses Three.js for 3D rendering and standard web technologies for 2D components, making the model's behavior directly observable and interpretable.

I trained a 125M-parameter transformer to autocomplete piano performances in real time (~108 notes/sec on an iPhone 15). The idea is basically GitHub Copilot or Tabnine, except instead of prompting it with code, you prompt it by playing a few notes on a MIDI piano. The model then continues what you played, entirely on-device. The app is free if anyone wants to try it. Happy to answer questions about the model, training, Core ML, or the many things that didn't work.

Hey HN, Henry from Cactus here! We previously released Cactus Needle, a 14MB agentic LLM for tool call, device use, and structured extraction for phones, wearables, smart homes, small robots and microcontrollers. We got really great feedback here, and have now incorporated the suggestions to release Needle 2. The whole model is a single 14MB binary that runs a full session in 28MB of RAM; 45m parameters at 2bit compression. Needle hits 500 tokens/sec decode speed on a Raspberry Pi 5, sits between 400-1,500 tokens/sec on VR devices like Meta Quest 3S and Apple Vision Pro, and ranges…
