slm-125m-base
A 125M-parameter Llama-style base language model, pretrained from scratch on a legal/financial corpus (US case law + SEC filings + a web slice, ~2.19B tokens).
- Pretraining: 10 epochs, 8xH100. Held-out validation perplexity: 8.36.
- This is a base COMPLETER, not a chat model. Prompt it with the start of a sentence and it continues in the legal register. It speaks the register fluently but does not know facts (knowledge is capped at ~2 bits/param at this size).
from transformers import AutoModelForCausalLM, AutoTokenizer
tok = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained("thesreedath/slm-125m-base")

ids = tok("The plaintiff alleges that the defendant", return_tensors="pt").input_ids
print(tok.decode(model.generate(ids, max_new_tokens=60, do_sample=True,
temperature=0.8, min_new_tokens=40)[0]))
