OK I've been listening to this in the background while browsing SN and realized I haven't absorbed a thing... do you guys just sit there and watch videos like this with your full attention or am I just dumb and bad at multitasking? :)
Full attention is absolutely required. I recommend 2x speed and 1.5 to 2 times.
It also helps if you understand control systems and/or matrix algebra. I have been blessed with a BS curriculum in just that. If you go to the link I send above there's a lot of foundational stuff that the youtube channel covers that makes understanding much easier.
I also made a tool that summarizes youtube content and is paid in bitcoin that you may find useful. This is the output for this particular video:
TLDR: The video discusses the workings of transformers, specifically the Generative Pretrained Transformer (GPT), which uses a neural network model to generate text based on input data.
  • GPT stands for Generative Pretrained Transformer, a neural network model.
  • Transformers process data through tokens associated with vectors.
  • The model predicts the next word based on the input text.
  • The video explains the process of generating text using transformers.
  • GPT-3, a variant of the transformer model, is used for tasks like language translation and text generation.
In the video, the speaker delves into the intricate workings of transformers, particularly focusing on how GPT models generate text. By breaking down the process of tokenizing input data, associating them with vectors, and predicting the next word, viewers gain insight into the fascinating world of neural network models like GPT. The video serves as a comprehensive guide for understanding the mechanisms behind text generation using transformers, shedding light on the complexity and capabilities of these AI models.
