Summary

TLDR: Forked pytorch and triton internals . Changed attention so its linear first layer , middle quadratic layer, last linear layer Inference got much faster with a low perplexity hit in tests . I trained a 25.6M parameter Rust-focused language model from scratch using a byte-level GPT-style decoder
