It is not a web frontend, an API wrapper, or a mock terminal demo. The release build compiles under DOS FreeBASIC, loads local model artifacts from disk, performs GPT-style inference with integer arithmetic, switches hot-loadable assistant packs, and uses local indexed knowledge files for fast recall on constrained systems. The project is built around a practical claim: language-model inference and useful local assistant behavior are portable algorithms. With appropriate quantization, storage layout, tokenizer design, and retrieval indexes, the same core ideas can run far below the hardware floor normally associated with modern LLMs. ► What It Does - Runs a DOS GPT-style transformer runtime in FreeBASIC with Q20.12 fixed-point weights and DOS-loadable vocabulary/model files. - Provides an assistant shell with multiple local packs for chat, DOS help, office tasks, development notes, and portable-system guidance. - Uses hot-swappable local model/knowledge assets rather than network access. - Combines tiny model generation, golden replies, session memory, pack retrieval, binary KDB/KB2 records, and sharded KB2T?.TXT term indexes. - Ships DOSBox, QEMU, hardware-transfer, and launch-kit bundles for release and validation workflows. - Includes host and QEMU gates that produce machine-readable evidence instead of relying on scr","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/tsotchke","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/tsotchke/gpt2-basic/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
