The author shares a practical roadmap for learning Large Language Models (LLMs) from scratch:
- Big Picture: Start with AI Explained for an overview.
- Fundamentals: Move to Andrej Karpathy for foundational knowledge.
- Open Source: Learn tools via Hugging Face.
- Hands-on: Build projects with freeCodeCamp and Tech With Tim.
- Deep Dive: Advance with courses from Deeplearning.AI.
- Stay Updated: Follow Latent Space for the latest developments.
The advice is to pick a consistent learning channel and focus on building rather than trying to watch everything.
