Pretraining:
- [ ] Step 1: Prepare pretraining dataset
- [ ] Step 2: Configure model architecture
- [ ] Step 3: Set up multi-GPU training
- [ ] Step 4: Launch pretraining

Model Deployment:
- [ ] Step 1: Test inference locally
- [ ] Step 2: Quantize model (optional)
- [ ] Step 3: Convert to GGUF (for llama.cpp)
- [ ] Step 4: Deploy with API

from litgpt import LLM

llm = LLM.load("out/phi2-lora/final")

# Single generation
print(llm.generate("What is machine learning?"))

# Streaming
for token in llm.generate("Explain quantum computing", stream=True):
    print(token, end="", flush=True)

# Batch inference
