  • The math involved in LLMs is not complex for anyone that has passed undergrad Calc and Linear Algebra classes. If you know derivatives, the chain rule and some matrix basics you can figure them out with enough studying.

    The hard part about LLMs is not the math but the neural net architecture innovations they brought (eg self-attention)

    I feel like I’m a similar position, especially the part about the stable foundation. It’s like my mental and social state is what should’ve been when I was 18 or 19, but I’m 25. I’m also feeling doomed. I’m trying to hype myself up by saying that at least I’m in a position to enjoy the rest of my youth, but it’s hard with people becoming increasingly unavailable due to jobs and long term relationships.
