Runs

Every model that was trained, and the lineage that connects them.

Lineage

Two independent initializations exist, and one continuation of the second.

Model lineage: two independent births and one continuation Model-0 and Pilot-0.2 are two independent initializations, drawn as separate roots. Pilot-0.3 is drawn as a child of Pilot-0.2, connected by an arrow labelled continued training, same model. It is not a third independent birth. A note under Model-0 records that its final checkpoint file is not available, though its hash and expected size are on record. Model-0 Independent birth #1 26,653,440 parameters 531,988,480 tokens · 32,470 steps Pilot-0.2 / Local-70M-0 Independent birth #2 69,970,848 parameters 531,988,480 tokens · 32,470 steps Pilot-0.3 Continued training — not a new birth 69,970,848 parameters 1,000,013,824 tokens · 61,036 steps continued training — same modelFinal checkpoint file not found; hash and expected size on record (§8.7).
Two independent initializations sit side by side. Pilot-0.3 hangs below Pilot-0.2 as a child, because it is continued training of the same model rather than a third birth. Source §3, §7.1, §8.7.

Trained runs

Two births, not three

Pilot-0.3 is not a third independent model

Pilot-0.3 began from the Pilot-0.2 final checkpoint. It is the same 69,970,848-parameter model trained further, not a new initialization with a new seed.

Counting it as a third birth would inflate the apparent number of independent observations from two to three, which is a large distortion when the total is two.

Some Observatory outputs report roughly 88.9 million state elements. That figure counts the tied embedding weight twice, because it is materialised in the state dictionary under both tok_emb.weight and lm_head.weight. The unique trainable parameter count is 69,970,848. The model must not be presented as an 88.9M model.
