Token Visualiser

What you'll learn

  • Understand how AI breaks text into smaller pieces called tokens
  • See why there are limits on how much text AI can process
  • Learn that tokens aren't always whole words

What are Tokens?

AI doesn't read text like we do. Instead, it breaks text into smaller pieces called tokens. A token might be a whole word, part of a word, or even just punctuation.

AI systems have a maximum number of tokens they can handle at once (their "context window"). This visualiser shows you approximately how text gets tokenised.
