How to chat with a frozen model to inspect byte output with Test Model Thing

Load your trained weights and chat without changing them, to see how it spells and closes quotes.

  • Research
  • Intermediate
  • 45 minutes
  • From the README
  • Any agent

Who it is forA researcher who has trained a model and wants to probe its byte-by-byte output without the weights changing.

The problemYou want to look at the model's behavior while keeping its learned state fixed, so results stay comparable across runs.

The outcomeYou get a chat session where the model's weights are not modified, plus notes on its spelling and bracket behavior.

What you need first

  • Python with a virtual environment (the README says to initialize a venv)
  • Apple Silicon Mac, or Linux with a GPU or CPU, or WSL (the README says it trains on WSL)
  • A training dataset, since model weights are not provided and dataset mode must be configured by you
  • Time for training, since the README's examples used 5 minutes to about 12 hours

Steps

  1. Make sure you have trained weights from the training step.
  2. Start chat mode with frozen weights using python main.py chat --frozen.
  3. Send several prompts and note misspellings and whether quotes and brackets are closed.
  4. Optionally add --no-save to a run if you do not want anything written to disk.

Prompt for your agent

In the jrz97619761/test-model-thing repo, using existing trained weights, run `python main.py   chat --frozen` and send five test prompts. Report the outputs and check that the weights file is unchanged afterward.

Caveat. The README says the model tends to misspell characters, so outputs will be imperfect, and weights are not supplied, so you must train first.
