WiggleGPT v3 - model_bio.py
===========================
Optimized GPT with Bio-Inspired Neurons - Training Speed Improvements
=====================================================================
Extended from model_bio.py with modern training optimizations while
preserving the core WiggleGPT architecture.
New optimizations:
1. RMSNorm - Faster alternative to LayerNorm (~7% speedup, simpler computation)
2. Rotary Position Embeddings (RoPE) - More efficient than learned embeddings
3. Gradient checkpointing support - Trade compute for memory
4. Better initialization - GPT-NeoX style depth scaling
5. Flash Attention 2 hints - Better kernel selection
These optimizations preserve the core model config (n_layer, n_head, n_embd, etc.)
and bio-inspired features (oscillating activations, sparse events).
