\n\" !$&'#,/+=-<>*@.:;[]^?0123456789abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzèé§↨
§ (made from alt+21) was used as end of file/sample 
↨ (made from alt+23) is the shift key (and gets removed and the next character gets replaced with an uppdercase character)

Model is trained on scraped youtube subtitles and whispered transcripts of youtube/tv shows. totalling approx 2.3billion tokens when processed.

Data was Deduped, Had all UPPERCASE samples removed, and ran a 'ranker' that removed random data which somehow was included in the subtitles on youtube. (such as total gibberish)

Training took 72 hours, and was stopped when overfitting occured. (this is checkpoint 264000 out of a planned 400000)
