Tiktoken
tiktoken is a fast BPE tokeniser for use with OpenAI's models
tiktoken is a high-performance, tokenizer library (based on byte-pair encoding, BPE) designed for use with OpenAI’s models. It handles encoding and decoding text to token IDs efficiently, with minimal overhead. Because tokenization is a fundamental step in preparing text for models, tiktoken is optimized for speed, memory, and correctness in model contexts (e.g. matching OpenAI’s internal tokenization). The repo supports multiple encodings (e.g. “cl100k_base”) and lets users switch encoding...
