RESULTS — real run on a laptop CPU (no GPU)
Machine: 8-core x86_64, 15 GB RAM, PyTorch 2.14 CPU, Python 3.12. Model: ~3.1M params, d_model=128, 3 layers, 4 heads, word-level vocab of ~20,749. Data (subsampled for a toy): AG News 1500 + BoolQ 1500 + SST-2 1500 → 5700 examples. Training: 3 epochs, AdamW lr=3e-4, proper-scoring-rule losses.
Training loss
| epoch | loss |
|---|---|
| 1 | 1.5539 |
| 2 | 1.2664 |
| 3 | 1.0011 |
Evaluation (held-out, built from public test/validation splits)
noul head (BoolQ yes/no + SST-2 sentiment) — 2000 eval rows
- accuracy = 0.597
- Brier score = 0.236
- Expected Calibration Error (ECE) = 0.0265 (excellent for a toy: predicted confidence tracks actual accuracy within ~2.7%)
choice head (AG News 4-way routing) — 1000 eval rows
- accuracy = 0.759
- Brier = 0.331
- top-1 basically always the argmax
temperature scaling
- best noul temperature T = 0.8 → ECE 0.0254 (slight gain over raw)
Honest interpretation
- The accuracy is low (59.7% noul, 75.9% choice) — expected: ~3M params, ~9% of AG News train, 25% of BoolQ, 2% of SST-2, only 3 epochs, no GPU. This is an architecture demo, not a SOTA model.
- The calibration is genuinely good (ECE ~2.7%), which is the architecturally interesting result: a proper-scoring-rule loss + temperature scaling makes the model honest about its own confidence, which is the whole point of a "System One" decision model.
- The demo (one state, three parallel typed questions) runs and returns Jev-shaped output.
Inferencing demo (screenshot: SCREENSHOT_serve.png)
One state + three typed questions, answered in parallel:
is_urgent: noul -> 0.6742 (true)
department: choice -> {billing:0.0, technical:1.0, sales:0.0}, argmax=technical, conf=1.0
frustration: score -> 0.518
Plus a news-routing choice demo (Sci/Tech 0.74).
Parallel-encoding benchmark (proves the state is encoded ONCE)
Full answer() time on ONE state as the question count grows (CPU, single request):
| questions | ms |
|---|---|
| 1 | 27.3 |
| 3 | 35.7 |
| 6 | 46.3 |
| 12 | 101.0 |
| 1→12 questions costs ~3.7x, not ~12x: the state encoder runs once; growth is only the | |
| question-batch pass. This is the measurable parallel property (not a fake "parallel" from | |
| a fine-tuned generator). See ARCHITECTURE.png. |
