A viral tweet claims Anthropic pays up to $650,000/year for people who truly understand deep learning, and promotes Nando de Freitas's permanently free course — the Oxford professor who later joined DeepMind — as a foundation rivaling $2,000+ paid programs. It also cites a long-form LLM explainer tracing the field from ELIZA (1966) to Grok 4.5 and Kimi K3.
