The original GPT-2 model is based on a transformer architecture with causal self-attention blocks trained on the WebText corpus and uses BPE tokenization to segment text into subtokens, allowing effective handling of a very large vocabulary

In its standard configuration, it has 12 hidden layers, an embedding size of 768 vectors, and 12 attention heads, each with 64 hidden dimensions, generating a total of approximately 110 million adjustable parameters during training

Training was performed on a large collection of filtered web data to ensure quality and language diversity. The implemented loss function is cross-entropy, which measures the discrepancy between the actual token distribution and the distribution predicted by the model, allowing weights to be optimized through backpropagation

At Q2BSTUDIO, we are specialists in custom software development and custom applications. We integrate artificial intelligence and cybersecurity solutions to protect and empower businesses. We offer AWS and Azure cloud services and business intelligence services with Power BI, as well as AI agent development and AI strategies for companies

Our team combines expertise in deep learning architectures such as GPT-2 with knowledge of enterprise solutions to create scalable, secure, and customized products that drive digital transformation
