 OpenAI GPT2
 ----------------------------------------------------
 
+Overview
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+OpenAI GPT-2 model was proposed in
+`Language Models are Unsupervised Multitask Learners`_
+by Alec Radford*, Jeffrey Wu*, Rewon Child, David Luan, Dario Amodei** and Ilya Sutskever**.
+It's a causal (unidirectional) transformer pre-trained using  language modeling on a very large
+corpus of ~40 GB of text data.
+
+The abstract from the paper is the following:
+
+*GPT-2 is a large transformer-based language model with 1.5 billion parameters, trained on a dataset[1]
+of 8 million web pages. GPT-2 is trained with a simple objective: predict the next word, given all of the previous
+words within some text. The diversity of the dataset causes this simple goal to contain naturally occurring
+demonstrations of many tasks across diverse domains. GPT-2 is a direct scale-up of GPT, with more than 10X
+the parameters and trained on more than 10X the amount of data.*
+
+Tips:
+
+- GPT-2 is a model with absolute position embeddings so it's usually advised to pad the inputs on
+  the right rather than the left.
+- GPT-2 was trained with a causal language modeling (CLM) objective and is therefore powerful at predicting the next
+  token in a sequence. Leveraging this feature allows GPT-2 to generate syntactically coherent text as
+  it can be observed in the `run_generation.py` example script.
+- The PyTorch models can take the `past` as input, which is the previously computed key/value attention pairs. Using
+  this `past` value prevents the model from re-computing pre-computed values in the context of text generation.
+  See `reusing the past in generative models <../quickstart.html#using-the-past>`_ for more information on the usage
+  of this argument.
