Interesting way to inspect model architecture; cost estimation is a useful addition
From 3 comments
Love it, I thought it only shows the "guts" of a model, turns out it also estimates the cost of serving that model.
alansml on HNVisually inspecting how a particular model is architected is quite interesting. Thank you for coming up with this!
Hacker_Yogi on HNextremely cool. I’ve had Claude walk model architectures to debug Loras and fine tunes, but this is delightful

Not as interactive or animated as the description suggested

when you mean interactive and animated i had high hopes

Surface tensor shapes and layer-level parameter counts
From 1 comment
How are you generating the architecture graph from model configs, and do you plan to surface tensor shapes or layer-level parameter counts as well?

Whether specific layers can be fine-tuned with LoRA
From 1 comment
I'd love to hear more about that. Are you able to fine tune specific layers? Specifically, one particular otherwise excellent model I use has an alignment problem (sycophancy)…

I saw a similar page a month back. The design aesthetics are bit different https://hfviewer.com/
