Haskell implementation of tiktoken.
This packages only implements tokenization. In other words, given an existing encoding (cl100k_base
) you can tokenize an input.
tiktoken
This is a Haskell implementation of tiktoken
, but just the tokenization logic. In other words, given an existing encoding (like cl100k_base
) you can tokenize a string (into smaller strings or token ranks).
This means that you can't (yet) use this package to create your own new encodings, but you can use it to consume encodings. In particular, this comes in handy for prompt engineering where you want to use as much of the available prompt tokens as possible (which requires accurately counting tokens).
Encoding speed is ≈2.6-3.1 MB/s on an M1 MacBook Pro (using only one core since this package does not yet support parallel tokenization):
