Welcome to Minty!
What's Minty?
Minty is a non-profit organization that makes very small base and instruction-tuned LLMs from scratch.
Our mission is to train models that can run on a wide range of hardware (including CPUs)!
Currently, our models are trained on Google Colab, using NVIDIA T4 GPUs!
Future Plans
