Attention-as-graph

alternative way to calculating self attention

Warning

I may or may not work on it further, PR are welcome though

look main.py this is preview

TODO

• so inferace with tiny lm as poc
• Add visuization
  • top nodes infuanceing current node

its for education purpose, has no pratical use (unless added visualiztion)
