# Live Gen Probe 8-GPU Updated: 2026-08-17T19:29:56.573368+00:00 - ckpt: - loaded tensors: 391 ## Prompt - unique tokens: 5 ## Prompt - unique tokens: 6 ## Prompt - unique tokens: 5 ## Prompt - unique tokens: 4 ## Prompt - unique tokens: 6 ## Training snapshot (same time) | GPU | tokens | ema_tf | tok/s | |-----|--------|--------|-------| | 0 | ~8.9M | ~9.1 | ~955 | | 1 | ~8.7M | ~8.9 | ~933 | | 2 | ~9.9M | ~8.0 | ~1062 | | 3 | ~8.7M | ~8.7 | ~932 | | 4 | ~8.8M | ~9.4 | ~941 | | 5 | ~9.2M | ~9.2 | ~991 | | 6 | ~9.0M | ~8.9 | ~960 | | 7 | ~9.4M | ~8.6 | ~1010 | ## Interpretation - Teacher-forced loss continues to fall on all 8 GPUs (ema_tf ~8-9 after ~9M tokens/shard). - Free-run greedy generation still shows **single-token attractor collapse** (repeat last word / commas). - This matches prior stage findings: knowledge in weights (TF) != free-run coherence yet (AR gap / decode dynamics). - Unique tokens per prompt ~4-6 out of 48 generated. ## Next - Keep SS training running. - Optional: re-apply decode surgery / temperature / n-gram ban at inference. - Do not read TF loss alone as "model speaks".
