SELF-DIRECTED P̶h̶D̶ EXD in AI Ep. 6: Taking Stock
Welcome back to the EXD! Somewhat surprisingly, we have reached episode 6 - so I thought this might be a good time to pause and take stock, and go over what we have covered so far, and where we are heading. The goal of the EXD is to build mastery in AI - but with a top-down approach. Instead of starting with theory and simple networks, I really wanted to see if we could start with a recent, cutting edge LLM and open it up to see if we can understand how it all world inside. You can think of this as a radical, DIY hacker kind of approach - as opposed to the standard academic progression from basics to advanced topics. My name is Ram, I work at the Ethereum Foundation on AI ops, and this is an open learning log that I call the EXD.
