That's exactly what I had in mind. When I started this, I was jumping back and forth between this thought: "Can this model size actually generate logical English text?" and I played with a few different models of the same size and I was really really depressed when seeing how bad they are.... but then I discovered more and more tiny models and LaMini-125M, LaMini-256M, and nanowhale-100m, and SmolLM2-135M-Instruct are very very decent. So I decided to give it a try.
