AI knowledge hive
Engineer-grade AI concepts framed for Spark / SparkLang — transformers, training, inference, multimodal, agents, evaluation, and decompile limits. Original diagrams (not scraped paper figures). Citations point at primary papers and surveys.
Never publishes competitive AI win claims. Spark factory train runs on CPU (default) or a consumer GPU. Not an OpenBin clone.
Topics below follow the same category → subcategory map as the Hive nav: Foundations · Systems · Safety / Eval · RE.
Foundations
| Topic | Page | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| LLMs & transformers | knowledge/LLM_TRANSFORMERS.md | Tokens → embed → attention → MLP; embeddings |
| Training stack | knowledge/TRAINING.md | Pretrain, SFT, RLHF/RLAIF, LoRA/QLoRA, SGD/Adam |
| Inference | knowledge/INFERENCE.md | Sampling, KV cache, quantization |
Systems
| Topic | Page | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Multimodal | knowledge/MULTIMODAL.md | STT / TTS / vision |
| Agents & tools | knowledge/AGENTS_TOOLS.md | Tool loops, ReAct-style patterns |
Safety / Eval
| Topic | Page | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation | knowledge/EVAL_STATUS.md | Benchmarks, baselines, frozen probes |
| Safety & limits | knowledge/SAFETY_LIMITS.md | Model limits → Guardrails → Grounding (./spark-ground) |
RE
| Topic | Page | What you get |
|---|---|---|
| Decompile + LLM RE | knowledge/DECOMPILE_RE.md | Link to existing research; recompile ≠ semantics |
| LLM decompile research | research/LLM_DECOMPILE.md | Factory research page |

How to read this hive
- Start with Foundations → LLMs & transformers for the math sketch.
- Jump to Training / Inference for practice vocabulary.
- Use RE before trusting pretty recovered C.
- Prefer Spark factory docs for what ships; this hive explains the field.
