Thanks! I really love the visualization too. We have a hosted demo you can try as well!

Fun! I wish the demo had the attention visualization. Would that be easy to add? Is the source code for the HF demo in the repo too?

Unfortunately it might be a bit challenging as there’s a nontrivial amount of extra computation we do for the viz, but it’s probably possible?

The attention demo code is in the /attention_demo directory if you want to try it on your own messages too :)
