Follow up: GPT-2's vocabulary as a hyperbolic tree — 32,070 tokens in a Poincaré ball you can fly through [P]

Explore the fascinating architecture of GPT-2's vocabulary with a unique visualization: a hyperbolic tree containing 32,070 tokens rendered within a Poincaré ball. This interactive experience, running directly on your phone, allows you to navigate the relationships between tokens through intuitive drag, pinch, and tap interactions. The structure reveals a natural "forest" of interconnected elements, best represented in hyperbolic space—a design that elegantly accommodates the vocabulary's complex similarity structure.
