nanogpt-shakespeare-char

by Ricardo Jose Dos Santos Cruz ricardojscruz1963/nanogpt-shakespeare-char

nanogpt-shakespeare-char is an open-weight model for text generation from Ricardo Jose Dos Santos Cruz. It has 11M parameters. At 16-bit it needs about 0 GB of GPU memory, which fits on 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest prices in the SAVRN Index.

This is the model card of a transformers model that has been pushed on the Hub. Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model. Use the code below to get started with the model.

Memory is the weights at that precision plus 20% for the runtime and a short context; a long context needs more. Prices are the lowest on-demand hourly rates in the SAVRN Index, read Oct 7, 2026.

Model Card

This is the model card of a transformers model that has been pushed on the Hub. Users (both direct and downstream) should be made aware of the risks, biases and limitations of the model. Use the code below to get started with the model. Carbon emissions can be estimated using the Machine Learning Impact calculator presented in Lacoste et al. (2019).

Questions About nanogpt-shakespeare-char

How much GPU memory does nanogpt-shakespeare-char need?

About 0 GB at 16-bit and 0 GB at 4-bit: the weights (11M parameters) plus a working margin. A long context needs more.

What is the cheapest GPU to run nanogpt-shakespeare-char on?

At 16-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour; at 4-bit, 1x MI300X from $1.85 an hour, at the lowest on-demand prices the SAVRN Index lists.

Compactbot

A 10,284,480-parameter LLaMA-style text model, trained from scratch. This is a verified first checkpoint for the LDT-10M request (model-requests #12, DedeProGames) — real weights, real training, but undertrained (see the honest status below). It is not a quality release yet; the card states that plainly. Standard LLaMA block, no sliding window, no GQA: The parameter count is the learnable total: the raw safetensors sum is 14,216,640, which double-counts the tied embedding (tok.weight 12288×320 = 3,932,160) that head.weight aliases. Tied, the true count is 10,284,480. - Trained from scratch (no base model). The model learned real context — val loss 4.602 is well below the 7.38 unigram floor…

Ornith-1.0-9B

Ornith

Aloha! Today, we are releasing Ornith-1.0, a self-improving family of open-source models for agentic coding. This model card documents Ornith-1.0-9B, the most lightweight member of the Ornith family, designed for efficient single-GPU deployment. Ornith-1.0-9B is a dense ~9B model (≈19 GB in bf16), so it serves comfortably on a single 80GB GPU. The recipes below stand up an OpenAI-compatible server; add --tensor-parallel-size / --tp if you want to shard across more GPUs. For a quick local test (or to script offline generation), load the model directly with Transformers. Make sure you have a recent release installed — see the Transformers installation guide; Ornith-1.0-9B requires…
