TokenTown: Visual introduction to how language models tokenize
TokenTown is an interactive web-based tool that visualizes how large language models break text into tokens and process them. The tool makes it possible to experiment with different texts and see the tokenization process in real time.
WHY IT MATTERS
Better understanding of tokenization is crucial to understanding both the limitations and possibilities of language models – it affects context window efficiency and model behavior.
